    The wife says her '55 plate golf plus has stopped telling her when the screen wash is low... I'm guessing its a sensor?? Any clues to where it is or how to check?

    Cheers

    its in the washer bottle, 2 pin plug. if its not showing low coolant then id suspect shorted wires somewhere, as afaik it works by having the coolant short the 2 sensor prongs together...

    Cheers Jonny, do you know an easy way to access it? The golf plus isn't known to make it easy to get to things lol

    Ouch on bumper off lol

    What's wrong with the old fashioned approach? No screen wash coming through = fill bottle up lol
