Fooling the Low Washer Fluid sensor
Does anyone know of a way to set the low washer fluid message to not go off? Tank has a leak at the gasket where the pump goes into the tank and I don't care to fix it as I never use washer fluid anyways. Or, I guess if anyone has a washer tank gasket lying around or if you know where I can get one ill fix it

Grommet LIST price is $1.65 ea Which ACD replacement are you speaking of? The pump? It sells for $16-$18(~).
Also, he said his tank is leaking because of the grommet. Leak = low fluid level, hence the warning message.

You are correct that I was talking about leaking around the pump (from grommet that pump goes in to) and NOT at the sensor. I've ordered a grommet as suggested above that should solve this issue, hopefully!
