    Check to make sure you are not low on oil. Did you do the recall on the electric water pump?

    Call your local toyota dealer service dept, provide them with your car's vin number....then ask if there are any open recalls.

    For the inverter/ATX pump just take off the coolant cap and check to see if there is any fluid movement. This will tell you if that pump is running.

    check engine light will come on if you leave the gas cap loose. make sure its good and tight.
