I would guess that the sitting car developed a moisture problem around the coil that temporarily caused arcing ... that prevented starting for just a little while ..but each time the car is attempting to start the computer feeds extra fuel to over come condensing on the cool intake manafold walls .. thats normal .. but since it didnt start the first time then more fuel was added the second time you tried .. .now the engine is flooded (too much fuel) .. but each time you attempt to start, it just dumps more fuel making the situation worse .. one way to tell the computer that you dont want it to keep doing that is to hold the throttle all the way down .. that also allows in extra air to dry things out ... in old cars holding the throttle down forced the choke to open which accomplishes the same thing ..

Toyota echo 2002 cd player (without cassette, marked 31804) Radio works fine, but when a put on a cd, it reads it and starts playing... with no sound. Any ideas? Thanks a lot

well , as with all discs, old player will NOT play all CDs.
not even close.
first ask an old guy for CDDA disk or buy one from walfart.
then try that, only these disks work in all players.
other disks may or will not work.
like DVD-R, CD-R and any other recordable disks will fail.
that is the acid test, if the CDDA disk works (real audio disk)
works then the drive is ok, if not, its bad. simple as apple pie.

My 2002 Toyota Echo

it seems to me that it was flooded so it had too much gas left in the dash pot don't press the gas at all when starting because as soon as you turn on the key the fuel pump will send the right amount of fuel you need to your system keep track of it and if it continues to do this check your fuel pump

My malfunction indicator on my 2001 Toyota Echo went on a day ago. My car is running fine, and it's not the gas cap issue

are you talking about the check engine light I have a 2000 echo with 350 000 kms on it and my light has been on for at least 200 00 kms I just ignore it car still boots along and i have only had to change the alternator and battery in it both within the last 7 yrs I had a garage reset the light once but it came on after a while so i just gave up on it it is up to you As I said I love that little beast it just will not die and it still gets me over 40 miles per gallon

2003 Toyota Echo radio/clock not working.

Disconnect your negative battery cable for about 10min. After you re-connect, the stereo should reset itself and start functioning. Best of luck!
