A 2009 Toyota Yaris is experiencing overheating issues, with the owner suspecting a malfunctioning coolant pump. A similar case with a 2007 Toyota Corolla revealed a faulty cable on the pump/control unit as the cause.

Thanks for the answer. My Yaris has 38245 km on the clock so far. My garage didn't notice anything unusual at the last service. But now that you mention it, maybe I should have the cable checked again. Thanks for the tip!

No problem, you're welcome! With such a low mileage, the car shouldn't have that many faults yet. A broken cable would definitely be a possibility. But I would also recommend having the coolant pump checked again by your mechanic. Good luck and keep us up to date.

Yes, I will probably do that. I'll go back to the garage later in the week and have it checked again. Hopefully it's just the cable and nothing serious. I'll keep you up to date. Many thanks for your help!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2007 Toyota Corolla. I'm not a car expert, but I do have a bit of experience. I went to my mechanic and he inspected the car. It turned out that there was a problem with the cable on the pump/control unit. After it was fixed and made 220 euros easier for me, my car was running like new again. Could you maybe give more details about your car, like model or mileage? That might help me give you more tips.
