Default Engine light came on when upper idler pulley came loose...

I replaced the upper idler pulley and bolt, which had somehow come off and the "check engine" light came on. Now that it is replaced the check engine light is still on, do I need to go get it reset?

pull the negative battery cable for 5 minutes, then re-connect. CEL should be gone.
