You don't normally need any equipment to clear a service warning
light.
In most cases its hold a particular button(s) in while turning the
ignition on/off. Google will probably tell you which if the
dealer/manual won't.

On the case of an airbag it can give a code indicating the sensor or
the problem at hand.
True but that isn't a service warning light, its a fault indicator
that requires service.


and a code will tell you which item needs "servicing".


*May* tell you what needs servicing. You haven't had much experience with car maintenance have you?


When was the last time you hooked up your laptop with a ELM327 pod to
your car?
