#5612 of 5646 2000 Toyota Echo Console Lights by flambe16 Sep 05, 2009 (10:28 pm)
The console light which looks like cool water lite up but after two minutes it goes off. Does this indicate the time the vehicle needs to warm up? The water levels are fine, I don't know why it does this? Replies to this message: kneisl1 (Sep 06, 2009 4:56 am) flambe16 (Sep 06, 2009 1:30 pm)

Replying to: flambe16 (Sep 05, 2009 10:28 pm) Its just telling you the car is warming up from a cold condition. When the light goes out the warm up is complete. Everything is fine and your ECHO is running as its creator intended it to! Replies to this message: flambe16 (Sep 06, 2009 1:30 pm)

Replying to: kneisl1 (Sep 07, 2009 7:10 am) I almost wonder if there should be a sticky for this one particular item (both here and in the Yaris thread) since it's an exceptionally common question but the answers get lost in the general maintenance thread.   It could be titled: "Echo/Yaris Instrument Lights - blue/green Temperature light/Automatic doesn't up-shift" or something to that effect followed by the basic explanation:   It's completely normal. The light stays lit until the engine is at it's appropriate temperature at which time it will allow the automatic transmission to upshift.   Hey Mods... what do you think?

Replying to: dake (Sep 07, 2009 9:04 am) We don't actually have the traditional form of stickys here. On the other hand, we do have outstanding search features that can be accessed from many levels. That's the way people can find the things that have been previously discussed.

Replying to: rep5858 (Sep 05, 2009 2:35 pm) I think that most dealer's are out of the 2009 Yarii. We have three Toyota dealer's in Memphis, one dealer has one left in stock, the others have none. The 2010's should be out soon. They will have upgraded standard safety features. Probably worth waiting for. You can find quite a few used Yarii on Ebay and even a few on the dealer's lots.

How many miles on it? Have you tried double clutching? The books says for wont go into gear:   1) shift cable faulty 2) synchronizer ring worn 3)shift key spring dammaged   I looked at the pictures and there are two synchro rings on the output shaft and two on the input shaft.

I'm $500 poorer this evening - got the Michelin Harmonys put on today, and had an alignment done and an oil change since it was there and it was about time.   Right off I notice it is a softer tire (the Harmony is S-rated as the original tires were; the Toyos I had before were T-rated) but that's not a bad thing. Echo is no race car to begin with.   There is less impact harshness over bad pavement than I ever had with the Toyos. And supposedly this is an 80K-mile tire, which means if they perform to expectations, these may well be the last tires I ever buy for this car.   Now I'm crossing my fingers that I will also get better wet traction when the rain starts in a month or so......
