    Low Screenwash warning

    So before I go dismantling the wheel arch to access the screenwash can anyone confirm if they get a low screenwash warning?

    I have the headlight washers on my 2018 HSE with LED lights, so I'm assuming that it should have a warning due to the UK MOT legislation but I've run out twice now recently and no warning.
    Had it on my 2016 L405 Range Rover and on all my other cars, so I assume it should be there and its a faulty sensor or broken wiring but a confirmation from somone would be really good as its not mentioned in the handbook.

    Thanks in advance

    All fixed - just installed a new sensor and that has resolved the problem. Now get low fluid level on dash and app.

    The sensor is a float switch and the original was stuck in the full position.

    I did notice though a hole in the main pipe to the windscreen washers around the lower inner front wing so spliced in some new pipe there as well which was a useful find!

    Not a bad job to do in the end - need to remove the front wheel on the drivers side, the wheel arch liner on the bulkhead side and then you can see the tank, the sensor and all the pumps. There is just enough clearance to remove the sensor without having to remove the wing as the tank is right up against the wing.
