THEN OF A LARGE TRIP THE "YELLOW LIGHT UP IN THE PANEL OF THE CAR, THAT HAS LIKE AN MOTOR ICON, SHOW ME THAT SOMETHING THIS WRONG.. IS IT DANGEROUS ?, IS IT RALATED WITH THE FILTER OF GASOLINE (IT doesn't CHANGE ). I don't HAVE MANUAL OF THE VEHICLE, I will THANK ANY HELP. THANK YOU

The same thing has happened twice to my 1999 Yaris. For me the first time it happened it was because there was a problem with the exhaust(which had to be replaced) and the second time it was a problem with the air/con. I think the light only tells you somethings wrong but the only way to know for sure whats wrong is to take to the dealer.

hope this is of some help to you.

ITS GOING TO BLOW UP!!!!!

no its the engine warning lighr. not good this is.

As earpl already said, it's going to blow u..., errrr... I mean it's the Check Engine Light. You can have the trouble code read at your dealer, or any garage that has an OBD2-compliant reader, or if you wish so, read out the code yourself. Instructions on how to do this can be found in this subforum.

Your mechanic is right about the fuel filter, it's integrated with the fuel pump.

I take it you mean this little bugger

I had this come up last year the error that came up was:

"Replace faulty air flow meter"

£89.00 plus VAT and Labour

Luckly it was under warranty.

this is the work that they did at the time

Clicky click

Basically is means "Take me to the dealer" for an error code readout.
