Anyone with a scanner that can reset codes?

Hey all,
I recently had some body repair done to my car and during the work, the shop disconnected my rear tail lamp. I believe that as a result, the car threw a bulb code that needs to be reset. However, the shop is not claiming responsibility for the bulb code and the stealership wants $100 to scan the vehicle.

Anyone in northern NJ have a scanner tool that can reset my bulb code? Will buy you a 6-pack of beer =P Or candy, if you are under 21. ;-)

Check to make sure they plugged them back in bro. Also check for frayed or cut wires where the work was done. If every was put back properly a simple bulb out error will clear itself so be it everything was put back correctly.

Yea the car goes through a self check when you start it up so it should clear on its own.

There is a issue with a faulty bulb holder for the taillights but it seems odd this would occur right after you got work done and if the shop touched the taillight....well it's common sense.

It sounds like the shop knows exactly what the problem is. They messed up and fed you some BS. No bulb system that I know of needs to be reset after replacing a bulb.
