SERVICE INFORMATION
2011-2014 All models (Except Routan) - Washer Level Sensor
The indicator lamp in the I.P. for washer fluid remains illuminated and the washer reservoir is full. Validate the washer reservoir is full with the proper washer solvent (G-052-164). Refer to Elsa for proper fluid type and fluid quantities under repair manual, maintenance, fluid capacity table. If the fluid is not blue in color, drain the fluid, remove the sensor and clean with cleaner (D-009-401-04) or equivalent. Reinstall the sensor, top off washer reservoir with proper fluid and validate that the indicator lamp in the I.P. is no longer illuminated.
Non-approved fluids can cause residues to form on the sensor which causes the washer fluid lamp to remain on when reservoir is full. Below are examples of non-approved fluids, a picture of the sensor in question (G33) and a picture of the approved cleaner (D-009-401-04).
