If it's plugged back in now, and not actually damaged, the MIL should go out after several driving cycles.

You could have AutoZone read the error code (post the number here) & clear it. That would be useful if it turns out to be a different error unrelated to the sensor that you unplugged.

You can clear it yourself by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. Then you'll need the security code for your radio & reset the clock & radio stations, etc...
