Windshield washer fluid

[arod412]

Doing some searching here, and I haven't found anything in regards to this, but I swear someone said something about it.

Anyway, my low windshield washer fluid indicator light came on. It's topped off, but the light still on.

I have used the rain-x stuff but apparently the dealer says because of some of the chemicals, it's messing up the senor. Besides using the blue stuff, what other washer fluid will be acceptable.

Don't understand why the sensor is picky, I don't care if the **** isn't working, because I would know if I'm out if I spray, and nothing happens. Damn truck electronics..lol. I'm glad I have a 2012....the newer models have a bigger dash, and I just want to keep it simple.

I use blue or the purple windex stuff as its good for -35 outside lol.

just take ur tank off and pour out the rainx clean the sensor prong and fill with the blue windshield washer fluid and the light will go off rainx gunked up my sensor i just did this a month ago really simple fix and blue washer fluid is cheaper at autozone if u take it to the dealer they will say u need a new sensor which u dont mine is a 2013 it takes maybe 20 minutes to remove grill n tank and sensor is just plug n play

Well i used RainX and mine stopped spraying. I can hear what sounds like the motor trying but nothing comes out. I haven't tried messing with it, I did buy a new motor/pump for it just incase. One of these days, ill drain that thing and see what's going on.

Windex....didn't think about that
I might mix it with the normal blue washer stuff.

I'm having the same problem on my 09. I was using the rainx brand. Gonna switch to the blue one next

Just had the sensor replaced......I think I used RainX but I don't remember. Either way it was under warranty.

That's strange because I have used nothing but Rainx on my trucks for the past 10 years and have never had an issue with the indicator light.
