Need some help: about washer fluid light

Hi guys,
I hope someone can help me out here.

One night, the "washer fluid low" warning message popped up on the dash. I figured, cool, no biggie, throw some in when i get home.

It wasn't too low in reeality but i topped it off and thought all was well.

Then, ever since, every time I start the car, that same warning message appears. I checked the canister under the hood many times to determine if i had a leak but it was as full as it can be every time.

Is there a reset for this warning message or am I looking at a different issue.

Thanks for any input you can give

Yeah, sounds like a bad sensor. I have had a few go bad in other cars. Not much you can do but have it replaced.

Guess so, hopefully it might still be under warranty.

It should be. How many miles do you have?

Just checked, I have 48k kms (not sure miles) and covered up to 4yr 100k. Ill let the dealer worry about what's wrong with the sensor.

Could be just a loose connector at the reservoir.
