the idea is not to reset it, but to read it.
go get a scanner and read it. problem is - if you are posting that kind of question here, you most likely will not be able to assess if the code means bad news or not.

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
see above post
you need to read the code and diagnose the problem not just ask if you can turn off the light.
Ignoring the CEl can lead to very costly repairs.
Code reader plugs in under your driver side dash and can be purchased from harborfreight tools for about 50 bucks or as mentioned read for free at places like autozone.
Post the code when you have it and then we can help you fix the issue and the light will go out by itself.
Don't listen to anyone that tells you to disconnect the battery
That will turn off the light but you will be burying you head in the sand,
Do it right and fix the issue
