Check the multiplug underneath the expansion bottle is firmly pushed home :-/

Would this have been removed for the head gasket work to be done, as mine has only started doing this since I had work done on the car...

yes, it would get more room to get to bolts... its only cliped in. lift up the bottle and have a look.

well 50/50 mix antifreeze
       50/50 mix screenwash
so only 50% water but yes water all the same  ;D
just different bottles different uses and different locations  ;D
maybe that was causing the original problem i had them mixed up (not) ;D ;D ;D ;D

My question is the same as yours, just with Omegas there is never a straight answer to a problem, you have to go around the houses to sort them ::) ::) ::)
In essence it needs an electrical circuit to work, if this is broken then the warning will show, low washer fluid.. :)

yup vamps you are correct but my question was that the washer level warning was coming up only on turning off the ignition not on start up or car running and as the float switch is only on/off if the float switch was faulty it wouldnt be making/breaking the contact therefore would show warning all the time
anyways changed float switch again and now all seems fine  :y

IMO the error would not show all the time, If you have an open circuit tail light the ecu notes this and you are reminded about it after you switch off.
