If the windshield washer indicator stays on in an Acura MDX, it typically indicates that the washer fluid reservoir is low or empty. Check the fluid level and refill it if necessary. If the fluid level is adequate and the indicator remains illuminated, there may be a malfunction with the sensor or wiring, which could require further diagnosis by a professional.

Should antifreeze be added to windshield washers to prevent freezing in winter?

No i would use screen wash. Regular washer fluid has something in it that keeps it from freezing as quick as straight water would. If it gets extremely cold it may get slushy but will not freeze to the point of breaking the washer jug. There is winter washer fluid that I assume stays liquid at lower temperature's.

Why does washer fluid low light stay on?

The washer fluid low light stays on to alert the driver that the windshield washer fluid reservoir is nearing empty, which can hinder visibility and safety while driving. It may also indicate a malfunction in the sensor that detects fluid levels, or the sensor itself could be stuck or damaged. If the fluid has been recently topped off and the light remains on, checking the sensor or electrical connections may be necessary.


On a 3000GT what does the yellow idiot light in the lower right corner of the display mean?

I'm not exactly sure, but I have this same problem (well I call it a problem anyways). One forum told me it the windshield washers fluid low level indicator, and remember, there are 2 separate tank for the fluids; one is in the back. Another forum told me is a radiator coolant low level indicator. Either way, I have both toped off and still the light stays on or sometimes blinks on and off - I wrote it off as a bad sensor. I would recommend checking both you windshield washer and coolant fluid levels and toping them off... in your case the sensor may still be good and perhaps this should do the trick... hope this helps...


Low fluid light for windshield washer stays on 2004 solara how do you reset?

The windshield washer fluid light will (ok, should) turn off automatically when you refill the reservoir. As your owners manual mentions, you can use plain water in the reservoir (distilled suggested) if you live someplace where freezing temperatures aren't an issue. A commercial antifreeze additive or the fluid (usually blue or pink) available from any auto supply store should be used if sub freezing temperatures are expected. Some of the commercial products also contain a window cleaning solution to help remove bugs etc. Side note: Be sure you add water or windshield washer fluid to the correct reservoir. There are lots of caps under the hood (you've probably noticed). You'll find a diagram showing exactly where the washer fluid reservoir is located in your owners manual or look for the cap (passenger side front of engine compartment) with an icon that looks a little like a windshield with wipers. Cheers
