Wiper sensor update

[EmpireSix]

So I forgot to post this a couple days ago. For those of you who read my post about my wipers not activating when i squirt washer fluid, this is the update.

Dave2000ls had the same problem and said all he had done was fill up his reservoir. Easy enough! There must be a certain point from when the wipers wont activate and when the low washer fluid level warning comes on.

Thats all. Problem Eliminated.

Gotta love those easy and sometimes stupid fixes.

:lol: nice fix!

But that's dumb, when the washer level is low it still squirts but won't wipe it off?

I noticed the same thing. But I think it disables the autowiper feature altogether when the low fluid message comes up because if you run out of fluid on the road, and you are driving in rainy/snowy/dirty mucky conditions, and the autowipers start wiping, it will smear up the windsheild with no way of cleaning cuz you have no fluid. So to aviod a potential hazzard, it just turns off the auto part. You can still manually turn them on. So it seems to be a safety feature. A pretty smart one at that. IMHO.
