A LITTLE HELP FROM THE EXPERTS!

[Tray Burge]

Thank you in advance.
I recently had my radiator upgraded to an aluminum one due to a blockage, obviously they had to remove my washer canister re-mount it, but when they put it back together now my "low washer fluid" light won't go off (it's full too). My mechanics too far away and a pain it the ass to get into during the week, and closed on weekends too.
So, I never use my washer fluid anyway, but is there a way to re-set this warning light, turn it off or whatever?
Appreciate any help if anybody knows.

Have you checked to see if it's actually plugged in? The mechanic might have missed that or maybe the plug isn't fully seated.

 

[Tray Burge]

Thank's for the reply it's plugged in, but I haven't pushed on it to see if it's seated, I'll give that a try at lunch.

Should be easy enough to bypass as well. I think if you just complete the circuit - jump the wires together, you should have an "eternally" full reservoir.

PS - you didn't fill it up with Rain-x washer fluid did you?

Oh No! Never, I only use plain water in mine and use it only if I have to. Tried the plug re-seat but no help. I'm going to mess with it this weekend, personally I could care less if it worked at all, I barely ever use it anyways.

What’s wrong with rainex fluid? I’ve been using it in all my previous and present vehicles without issues. Is ther something I should be aware of?

ANYTHING with soap, cleaner etc. will spot your clearcoat.

O, ok, didn’t realize it does that, honestly never noticed.

 

[Tray Burge]

...but fricken rain spots the clearcoat too! Just haven't used it since I was a kid and got into the habit.

I use the rain x stuff too and I’ve never had an issue with it messing with the paint. Not saying it isn’t possible though.

The rain x is - or used to be - notorious for coating the probes of the fluid level sensor causing this very issue.
