While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your 200's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue.

Yes, the drivetrain system in your 200 includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your 200 forward.
