take and wiggle or turn the connector for the low washer sender just be careful that you don't break it
let me know if that solves the problem

I hate that didn't seem to work but I jiggled it a bit and nothing happened as far as light goes, Washers work fine. Recon wouldn,t hurt to leave light on but just bugs us .So what would be next step?

The low washer fluid indicator does not operate correctly
Washer fluid level switch.
GEM.
Circuitry.

the switch is open when the level is full
as the level drops it will cause the switch to close and activate the low warning lamp

if you disconnect the connector and the light goes out then the switch is the problem
but if the light still remains on then it could be a problem in the GEM or the circuit
