Seat Leon Hybrid Washer Fluid Issue

I am really stuck. My 2022 Seat Leon hybrid is showing a washer fluid low warning on the dashboard, but the reservoir is full. The windshield washer system doesn't work. I've got over 105000 km on the clock. VCDS is showing an error, but I can't work it out. I think it is related to the fluid level. Has anyone else seen this?

I know this issue. I also own a Seat Leon. Have you checked the windshield cleaning fluid level sensor? It can trigger a false positive, especially with corrosion on the contacts.

That's interesting. Where is the fluid level sensor located? Is it easy to get to?

The sensor is part of the washer fluid reservoir. While you can get to it, I'd get a technician to look at it. A faulty sensor can cause the warning light to come on even when the fluid level is fine, triggering the error. I had to go to the workshop to fix it.

Just to let you know, it was the fluid level sensor that was faulty, even with a full reservoir. A replacement cost 25€ and the warning light is now off and the spray jets work. Thanks for the help.
