Low washer fluid switch.

I bought my car with a snow performance meth injection system and they are using the washer bottle for the reservoir. My problem is the low level switch isn't hooked up. Where is it supposed to be? Is it part of the factory pump, or is it it's own switch? I can't find it on any parts breakdowns that I can see. I would really like to get it hooked back up and working so I know when I need to refill my meth.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe there is a light for low washer fluid levels.

I thought there was a low fluid sensor, and comes on in the DIC. I think it just says "low washer fluid" ...


Just checked the manual, there is a icon that comes on for the washer fluid.

I'm pretty sure there is no level sensor on any 5th gen washer fluid tank. I know for a fact that mine never had one.

There's no sensor on the bottle. The light may be an indicator for pump failure.
