CEL - Reset ECU?

Good evening.

On my way to work this morning, I hit something on the road. As soon as I got to work, checked for leaks and there was none. When I got home, checked under the car, It just hit my front lower tie bar and the heatshield for the exhaust. Should I just try and reset the ECU? Could it have just shook the sensors?

Which fuse do I remove to reset the ECU if I just need to reset it?

There is still plenty of oil and oil change was done like 2 months ago.

You can give it a shot, but I'm going to assume that a wire got cut under the car. This happened to my friend and his oxygen sensor had been ripped off by a rock.
