Read your owners manual it will tell exactly what they are. A low fluid slsymbol could be your winshield wiper tank is low on fluid or it could be your coolant level is low in your engine. Try filling the windshield fluid first if the light goes out, then there you go. Become aquainted with your owners manual.
The sensor inside the tank is defective or covered in goo. Remove the sensor from the tank or remove the tank and flush it clean with hot water and a mild solution of white vinegar, if the sensor still reads the tank is low replace it.
check the brake fluid level in the master cylinder as if its low it will turn the light on.check to make sure the fluid level sensor is not stuck as well.if the e-brake is not all the way off,something holding it up then this will turn on the light as well.
your car probably just needs wiper fluid and since the amount is low,the sensor inside the tank is letting you know to add some.it should turn off as soon as you fill it up with washer fluid if that is what the light looks like.hope this info helps.good luck and take care, manny
This would be your engine check light. First off you need to check all your fluid levels. This includes windshield wiper fluid, brake fluid, oil, transmission fluid if it is an automatic. Remember that the transmission fluid on an auotmatic measuers in pints on the dip stick and not quarts even though it comes in quart bottles. The car must be in neutral and riunning while checking the fluid. Be sure you put the emergency brake on too just in case it ever slipped into gear. Things happen. Check radiator water level and power steering fluid.
With this light on it the computer will drop the engine into safe mode and have less power. If after all the fluids are filled and it is still on then it will be time to take it in and have the mechanic check the computer to tell you what needs repaired. This may cost 75 bucks or more but there is a thousand things that can turn that light on. Unless you can tell me if the car was acting up in any other features prior to the light coming on. If so then let me know and I will try to help you, Good Luck, The Raz
the winshield wiper water resevoir has a level indicator in the lower portion on the plastic container, and if the fluid is below the sensor turns on the light on the dash. Solution: keep the resevior filled about the sensor, and light will stay out.
There is a float on the fluid container that registers when the container is empty to let you know to fill it. Sometimes when it is run dry and the light comes on the float gets stuck. Try tapping on the side of the container. You may be able to see an electrical wire going into the bottom side of the bottle, this is where the sensor sits, tap there gently. This worked for me, hope it works for you too!!
