Skoda Kodiaq Windshield Washer Issue

Thank you for your input. I did check the fluid level, and it seemed adequate. However, your mention of a potentially faulty sensor has me wondering. Could you elaborate on how you determined that the sensor might be the issue, or how you confirmed the fluid level accurately? Is there a specific method you used to check, or a certain amount of fluid you'd expect to see in the reservoir?

Well, to be honest, I just topped it off completely even if it looked fine at first glance, and the warning went away. But if you already topped it off, and the spray jets are still not working, and the warning light persists, then it might be best to take it to a workshop. They can properly diagnose if there is a leak in the fluid lines or an issue with the pump itself.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Following your advice, I checked the fluid level more thoroughly. Turns out, despite the low fluid warning light not appearing before, the windshield washer fluid reservoir was indeed nearly empty. I refilled it, and the warning light disappeared, and the wiper system is now functioning correctly. The spray jets are working as expected. I purchased a new bottle of windshield washer fluid for approximately 25€. Thank you for your help.

Hello there! I own a Kodiaq myself, and I think I had a similar problem with the wiper system not working once. If the error memory stored a 'wiper water level too low' message, did you actually check the windshield washer fluid level? It might sound obvious, but sometimes the sensor is a bit off, or maybe there is a leak somewhere. It's worth double-checking before you start looking at more complicated solutions.
