Dis connect your battery for 30 seconds, or if you want to keep you radio presets... Dis connect the secondary clock fuse for 30 seconds. That should clear it. There is also a service plug that you can jump two of the pins, but I don't remember the pin numbers to jumper.

if you have a 3.0 you need to clean out the egr paths in your intake manifold.. the ONLY way to do it is remove the intake manifold. its actually not hard, but if you reset the light it will come back on within the week.
