How to reset the odometer back to 0.

My brother in law has a Vado 3 and has reached 10,000 miles but he can't figure out how to reset the odometer back to zero. Specialized told him to take the battery out of the display and replace it but it still reads 9999.
His bike has a TCD-W display.
 
You can reset the trip odometer by holing the '-' button on the TCD Remote selector for a few seconds. I believe you need to have a dealer reset the bike odometer.
 
I reset my TCD by holding down both buttons for 2 seconds then releasing. This resets not only the trip but also ride time, max speed, and everything else, with the exception of the total mileage (odometer). The odometer figure comes from the motor electronics. I had the motor changed on my Creo and my mileage started over. I doubt the dealer can reset the odometer, much like a car odometer can not be reset.
 
Not sure there's any difference between just the '-' button or both '-' & '+' buttons to reset. I just reset my trip miles from yesterday's ride by pressing '-' until the miles figure zeroed out (a few seconds). This also reset all trip-related stats; ride time, calories, max speed, etc. Only total mileage remained unchanged. Check with your LBS re resetting the total odo.
 
HeyBike Cityscape 2.0 Odometer reset How to:

I figured out how to reset the trip odometer and was unable to find it on the web anywhere and wanted to save anyone else the hassle of trying to figure it out.

Fair warning: the manual specifically says NOT to change any of the settings for P09 through P20 but this requires 'setting' P16, so proceed at your own risk

This is only for the Cityscape 2.0 and from all the research Ive done it seems that there may be multiple versions of the Cityscape 2.0 as my bike looks different from the pics ive seen online.

P16 is the parameter for factory resetting your controller. Factory resetting your controller does NOT reset your odometer OR your trip odometer. Doing the steps below does NOT factory reset the controller (I've tested this.)
Yeah. This user interface is wild.

- Hold UP/DOWN for 2 seconds to enter settings.
- Hit M repeatedly until you are on P16.
- Hold M for a few seconds until the numbers (your current trip mileage) start flashing.
- Hold UP for 5 or 8 seconds and it will reset to 0.
- It will continue to flash and there is no way to make it stop but nothing more is needed. Just hold UP/DOWN to leave settings menu.

To reiterate because this is confusing. If you go to P16 and long press DOWN, it factory resets. If you hold M until the numbers flash and long press UP it resets the trip odometer.

Cheers.
