Default Low Washer fluid light

My low washer fluid light is coming on. And yes I have added washer fluid.. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks,

Mark

Mark,

The connector for the sensor is easy to dislodge. Confirm that it isn't loose and (probably) wait an ignition cycle or two to see if the warning clears.

That little float thingy can spin on you. Make sure that little flat on the plug/sensor is facing down. If you pull it out (watch out all the fluid will follow) you will see what I mean. It comes out really easy, and can sping upside down just as easy!

Just double checked mine and the white plastic sensor is keyed to the fluid tank. There is a flat on that that should be UP to key to the tank!!!

Mine comes on after the car sits on my driveway with the nose lower than the rear It goes off the next time you start it or you can reset it. ;) :cheers:
