The mechanic who"fixed the problem" should turn the light off- unless the problem wasn't fixed at all

CAR X REPLACED THE TIMING BELT. I DIDN'T NOTICE THE LIGHT UNTIL LATER. THE REPAIR WAS DONE OUT OF TOWN. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE BACK TO HAVE THEM DO IT. IS THERE A WAY I CAN DO IT ?

like I said- there may be more problems than just the replaced timing belt- gotta love these modern cars that nag, nag, nag
