DMax Washer Fluid Sensor Issue

My 2009 Chevrolet DMax, diesel engine, 176144 km. Washer fluid low warning persists despite reservoir being full. Error stored in the error memory. Windshield washer system no longer works. Suspect wiper water level sensor malfunction. Any insights?

I had a similar issue with my DMax. I checked the wiring, but it was fine. The dashboard light drove me nuts. Did you check the pump itself?

Pump seems operational. Fluid is not being pumped, but I don’t suspect a blockage either. Is the sensor easily accessible on your DMax, or did you need special tools?

Mine was a pain to get to. I ended up taking it to a workshop. Turned out to be a faulty sensor, even though I also thought the pump was okay. It was the same error code.

Thanks for the info. Problem solved. Faulty sensor, replaced. Total cost 25€.
