Temperture sensor + fuel consumption on YR - Toyota Yaris Forums

amanda_84 · 10-26-2010, 01:06 AM

Hi,

I bought a 2010 YR base model hatch and I can see the space for the temperature reading and the fuel consumption on the dash where the clock is but it doesnt work - I think this is because i've only got the base model.

Does anyone know how to 'turn on' this feature?

There's no way to turn it on for AUS market cars. That same cluster is used in Japan, and in that market the feature is enabled.

That sucks, you would think if they use the same cluster and theirs is 'on' then there would be a way to turn it on and off for here.

Oh well..

thanks for the reply

I've read up on the manual, apparently they are for the cruise control option.
So I guess if you have the cruise control package, it should work....

With the temperature most cars have dumb gauges anyway so our warning lights are an acceptable substitute.
Cruise information would be handy though.

Hi All
I recently bought a YR 2010 model as well, so just to confirm (apologies if this is a very silly question) there are warning lights if the engine gets overheated? Would the warning light be the same as the "cool" light that comes on when you first start the car in the morning? Just a different colour?

Hi there,
When engine in cold coolent temp green light will come. But when engine nearly over heat there is a red symbol next to cold indicator that shows U to stop soon.
