To reset the onboard computer of a 1997 Subaru Outback, disconnect the negative battery cable and let it sit for about 15 minutes. This will clear the memory and reset the onboard diagnostics. After reconnecting the cable, turn the ignition to the "On" position without starting the engine for a few seconds, then start the vehicle. Keep in mind that this may also reset other settings, so you may need to reprogram your radio and clock.
There is no reset button. Disconnect the battery for a few hours, then reconnect and the computer's memory will be erased. You'll have to reprogram your radio setting.

No, there is not. Most code readers will allow you to reset the check engine light, but you can reset it simply by disconnecting one battery terminal and touching it to the other to discharge capacitors in the system. If this makes you nervous, just pull a battery terminal and leave it disconnected for 45 minutes or so. When you reconnect it, the computer will be reset.
I believe you just lock and unlock it using the keyless entry, if available. If not, try the power locks.
Remove one battery terminal and touch it to the other to discharge capacitors in the system. Reconnect the terminal and you are good to go. Don't forget to clean the terminal while you have it off.
The procedure is covered in your owner's manual. If you don't have one you can download a .pdf file.
You need an OBDII computer a) to read the reason for the check engine light, and b) to reset the error code if you know what caused the light to come on. If you don't fix the condition that caused the light in the first place, it will probably occur again.
