BMAX Washer Fluid Sensor Issue

I'm getting seriously frustrated with my 2017 Ford BMAX diesel. I keep getting a 'washer fluid low' warning, but the windshield washer system doesn't work at all! I've checked the fluid level and it's full! Anyone else seen this before?

Summary of the thread

A 2017 Ford BMAX diesel owner is experiencing a persistent 'washer fluid low' warning despite the washer fluid being full, and the windshield washer system is non-functional. The issue is identified as a faulty sensor in the wiper system, which stores an error in the vehicle's memory. The recommended solution is to have the sensor checked and replaced at a workshop, which resolved the problem for another owner with a similar issue.

I've got a BMAX too, and I had something similar happen last winter. Constant low washer fluid warning even though it was topped up. Does the error get stored in the error memory, too?

Yeah, that's the thing! Error stored in the error memory. So, what was it in your case?

Okay, so it sounds exactly the same. Honestly, I messed around with it for a bit and then just took it to a workshop. Turned out to be some sensor issue with the wiper system. Wasn't a massive job, but beyond my skills.

Cheers for the heads up! Sounds like a plan, straight to the shop it is then. It was just a faulty sensor in the end, and the bill came to 25€. Appreciate the help!
