Washer bottle level indicator thing.....
« on: 03 July 2011, 21:42:03 »
Does this have a circuit board in it? (on the washer bottle) if so mine is broken, very broken..... ::) ::)

Now I know it has not been working since the snow, not a problem, just that I have to tap the end of the stalk to get rid, hardly a problem....

My question is, can I just join the two wires together and bypass the whole thing?

Have you tried physically pushing the float switch down inside the expansion tank a few times with your finger Mike? Also take off the metal wing clip holding the tank & slide the tank inwards an inch or so until it comes free of its track & check that the multiplug is still firmly attached! If after all this you still have the 'check' warning, the float switch is goosed & a new tank is in order ::) The plug can be short circuited using a paperclip  :y

If it ain't broke keep fixing it 'til it is!

Pop out the sensor, and clean it up (sometimes get gunked up with that white stuff).  Though if it was ice, its probably fubar, but easy enough to visually check.
