Eco button in old yaris?
I bought an old Toyota Yaris, manual transmission (1999-2003) and do not understand what is here. This button lights up when car lights is turned on. When driving nothing changes.

Is it a on/off button for a start/stop system?

what model, what engine, where did the car originate from? It isn't an option we ever saw in the USA.

Once again, check the car vin and got this:
Manufacturer - Toyota Model - Yaris (200-07-11 first registration) Body type - 3-door Fuel Type - Petrol Engine capacity [cm3] -1000 Country of manufacturer - Japan Transmission Type -Manual Line - TOYOTA STOP & GO SYSTEM Engine- 1000CC DOHC EFI 16VALVE Gearbox - MTM, 5-SPEED FLOOR SHIFT Safety restraints: Manual Belts w/2 Airbags and Side Airbags So, if I understand correctly this is a Toyota Vitz. Which has STOP & GO SYSTEM. Stop-start system automatically shuts down and restarts the internal combustion engine to reduce the amount of time the engine spends idling, thereby reducing fuel consumption and emissions. And previous owner turned it off. |
