Skoda Karoq Washer Fluid Warning

Yes, I checked the fluid level – it seemed okay but I didn't actually top it off. Maybe it's lower than I thought? And yes, none of the spray jets are working, front or rear. If it's just low fluid, why would it store an error in the error memory? Is that normal?

Okay, if none of the spray jets are working, and you have an error code, and you think the fluid level is okay… it could still be the fluid level. The sensors are at the bottom of the reservoir. Even if it looks like there's fluid, it might not be enough to trigger the sensor correctly, especially on a slope. The error code is normal when the system detects low fluid or a fault. I'd suggest properly topping off the washer fluid before getting worried. If that doesn't solve it, then it might be time to visit a workshop.

You were absolutely right! I finally got around to topping up the washer fluid myself. It took almost the entire container! The warning light is gone, and the windshield washer is working perfectly again. Can't believe I stressed so much about this. 25€ well spent for the fluid. Thanks a lot for your help!

The dreaded washer fluid low warning! Okay, a few things to check. First, are you absolutely sure the fluid level is actually low? Sometimes the sensors can be a bit wonky. Have you tried manually checking the reservoir? Also, when you say the system doesn't work, do you mean none of the spray jets are working – front and rear windshield washer?
