Ford Ka engine light-how to reset?

I own a Ford Ka 1.3 2002 with a Dura Tec engine. The car was misfiring and it has now been fixed by my father in law and the problem is solved, however I do not know how to reset the engine light and turn it off.

To reset the engine management light you will have to put the engine on a diagnostic tester, these are normally held by garages, where they can then reset the ECU. Unfortunately there is a cost for this.

My Ford Ka (2007) has started to struggle to change gears. What could be causing this, I can see no visible leaks and when my father drove the car over the weekend it seemed ok.
