Monza Washer Fluid Issue
Summary of the thread
A 2022 Chevrolet Monza displayed a low washer fluid warning and the windshield washer system was non-functional, with an error code stored. Possible causes included a faulty level sensor, clogged line, or failing washer motor. Suggested solutions involved checking the washer motor for voltage, inspecting for leaks, and examining connections at the pump and nozzles. Ultimately, the issue was resolved by refilling the low wiper fluid.

I haven't checked the voltage yet. Where is the washer motor located on the Monza? Also, is there a common failure point in the lines I should inspect first?

The washer motor is typically attached to the reservoir itself, often near the bottom. You should be able to access it by removing the wheel well liner on the corresponding side. As for common failure points, check the connections at the pump and the nozzles first. Sometimes the plastic becomes brittle and cracks, leading to leaks and pressure loss. Given the error code, however, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. It could be a wiring issue.

Thank you for the detailed information. As suggested, I had the system checked. It was indeed low wiper fluid. The repair cost was 25€.

Yes, I've seen this before. These systems are more complex than they appear. The error code likely relates to a faulty level sensor, a clogged line, or a failing washer motor. The sensor could be sending a false signal even if the reservoir isn't empty. Have you checked the motor for voltage when activating the washers? Also, is there any visible leakage around the reservoir or lines?
