AB2: Check Windshield Washer Reservoir Fluid level Sensor

With the ignition in the OFF position, locate and disconnect the windshield washer reservoir fluid level sensor connector. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the windshield washer reservoir fluid level sensor under the following conditions.

WINDSHIELD SENSOR RESISTANCE

Windshield Washer Reservoir Fluid Level Sensor Float Position Resistance
Magnetic float on bottom (reservoir empty) Lees Than 5 ohms
Magnetic float off bottom (reservoir not empty) Greater Than 10,000 ohms

Are the resistance readings correct? If yes, go to the next step. If no, replace the windshield washer reservoir fluid level sensor.
