'19 GT - Loose rear wheel ABS sensor created CEL?

I just left earlier this morning for a 3 day trip and about 20 miles from the house, the ABS light and CEL came on.  The cruise control light began blinking and the quickshifter "QS" on the dash isn't on.  I got off the bike and noticed the rear wheel ABS sensor wasn't screwed in tight.  I had just changed the rear tire a few days ago and today was the first ride since, so I went straight to the rear wheel and saw I hadn't tightened the screw enough apparently.

Once I got that tightened on the side of the road, the ABS light went off when I got to 6 mph as usual and the cruise works again.  But the CEL is still on and I'm locked out of the menu.  I came back home even though I'm 99% sure I've fixed the issue other than the CEL still being on.  Is there anything I can do other than order a diagnostic tool to clear whatever code is keeping the CEL on, short of going to the dealer Tuesday when they open?

Sucks because now I'm wary of taking off for 3 days being hundreds of miles from home with the CEL on.

Got to have an OBD scanner tool or go to the dealer to clear CEL code.

99.9% sure it will be fine for your trip as is if you don't have time.

Thanks.  Seeing as how it's almost noon, I'm going to bag my trip.  I'll spend a bit looking online for an adapter and OBD since it will probably be cheaper than the dealer charging me an hour of labor to do this.
