Faulty Windshield Washer Fluid Indicator

[Barry S.]

My windshield washer fluid indicator shows low fluid level warning despite the fact that the washer reservoir is full. I have an OBD2 scanner. Can I safely use that to turn off the faulty indicator?

Delete my question. Fluid level warning is gone.

Indicator back on again. Can I use the OBD2 Scanner to reset it?

Perhaps. My guess is the problem is with a faulty fluid level sensor, not a false ETC.

Does the light go off when its low? Perhaps the sensor was wired in backwards?

Recall this was a symptom of an older Sync version. If you're not up to date, you might want to get a USB stick and apply an update.
