We just purchased a used 2002 toyota echo (without an owners manual) and noticed that the low engine coolant temperature light is blue and stays on. What does this indicate? Are we low in coolant, or could there be a bigger problem. We didn't notice if when we test drove the car.
I also recently bought a 2002. According to the owner's manual the blue light does not indicate a problem unless it stays on after the car warms up. If you have an automatic it will not shift into fourth gear until the coolant warms up at which time the light should go off. Have only had the car for a week and notice the blue light goes off after a mile or two of driving in temperatures in the teens to 30's. I don't know how much outside temp affects it.
Get the
coolant pressure tested, its definitely leaking coolant. You will need to get
the coolant running line.
Pressure
test will help you to know from where exactly coolant/refrigerant is getting
leaked.
