    Hello guy's i have a windshield washer problem on my 360 F1.

    The light on the borad computer still on and told me that my whashing windshield it's empty , but when i try to put washer liquid on the tank this one it's full!!!!

    Do you have any idea of the problem ?

    I maybe will try to remove the bumper to see if something block the liquid.

    Thanks for your answering.

    Ricardo,

    I just had this problem with my 360. It is the windshield washer resvoir sensor that has likely failed. Yes they have to remove the bumper and replace the sensor. Total cost at FOW was $380.00.

    Here are some pics.

    Ricardo,

    Be careful with the rubber hoses around that area, they become very fragile with time!! One of mine split, lucky they had one in stock!!!!!

    I drove around for 7 months before I finally caved and had it fixed! Yea, it was annoying!!!

    Ricardo,

    I believe it was the one coming out of the top of the sensor, pretty sure. I was half paying attention when the mechanic showed me, there was a brand new Scud next to my car and I couldn't take my eyes off of her!!! LOL!


    I also remember him having to fish part of it out of the resvoir, for whatever reason. Shouldn't take you more than 2-3 hours. Just remember, you have to take the front tires off to get the bumper off.
