No neeed to reset the pad indicator. It goes off by itself. If the light is still on, then have him re check his work for the sensors.

Red brake light, check fluid level in master, hand brake applied or hyraulic failure.

Failure to reset means something is still wrong. It should reset when unless your scan tool is not capable of doing it.

What were the exact words on screen? Any codes?
