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.

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.
