Washer Fluid Light wont go off

ZStalker505 · 10-15-2024, 05:08 PM

I use the reservoir for water/meth and it got low enough to trigger the light to come on. Topped it off with what I had left in a jug probably 60% full and the light keeps coming on. Any thoughts? I tried banging on it to see if it was stuck because I read somewhere that can happen but nothing changed. I could just unplug it but its kinda nice to know if it gets low.

Ya, the sensor is probably stuck or shot.For other Nissans, The FSM says you have to replace the whole reservoir as an assembly.

Rock auto sells individual sensor/float with new gasket. Did it on my Murano.

You need access to bottom of reservoir. Check your connections/wiring first.

So my low-level warning light just started coming on even though the tank is full. I picked up a new sensor from Amazon. I know the RF wheel & wheel liner can be removed for access - as well as the entire front bumper cover. Wondering if there is any other way folks have managed to gain access to the level sensor on the reservoir tank?

sensor is probably strung out and sleeping after being up for days on end...
