Behind the clear dash cover there will be a small button to press, has he replaced the timing belt though??

Somewhere on the instrument cluster, there might be a small rubber grommet to move then a pin or something like that to reset it.

i thionk its done with an ignition combination on the 100series

ie, gotta go through a routine, like switch car on, then off for 5 seconds, then on, select D etc

with ignition turned on, using the trip switch , change the display to ODO, and then turn the ignition OFF
While pressing the trip switch,turn the ignition switch ON and hold for five seconds
Release the trip switch,then press the switch again within five seconds.The digital display should change to T- BELT MODE. Each press of the switch then should change the reset time by 10,000km increments. After setting the klms hold the trip switch ON for more than five seconds then release the switch. Check that the display has now changed back to ODO and that now the warning has gone off when the engine is started
