You can try disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes but more than likely this will not work. In almost all cases on OBD2 compliant vehicles you must use a OBD2 scan tool to reset the check engine light after you repair the problem that set the light in the first place. Know that if you do not repair the problem the light will just come back on.

How can i reset my maintenance reminder on my 2004 ford taurus

I could not find any information on your vehicle but you can try this. Turn your key on without starting and pump the fuel pedal three times then shut off and turn back on back off. See if that clears it.
