Well, if you do nothing, the light will go off on it's own, but that will take a bit of time. If you want to turn the light off right away, the only way I know of to do it is to turn everything off then remove the negative cable from the battery. Then turn the headlights on for about 5 minutes to drain the capacitors in the computer. Turn the lights off, and reconnect the battery.

The bad part about doing the battery thing is that you'll have to re-program your radio and your engine and transmission will have to relearn everything. Your transmission, in particular, might act a bit funny for a little while.
