Malfunctions
I was driving along this morning and after 30 minutes, I noticed the following 2 malfunctions at the same time:
1. Coolant fluid, Check level.
2. Washer fluid, Check level.
Windsheild washer was working and according the instument cluster, engine temperature was 90C. All seemed OK. When I stopped the car after the highway, I turned off and on the car and no more malfunctions. I will see if these malfunctions reappear in the next few days.
Since cooling and washer systems are not related, how would the 2 malfunctions appear at the same time? Do they share the same fuse or something?

NO LONGER ACTIVE
The coolant level and washer fluid level sensor are actually on the same wiring harness and even wired in series. My guess is that you have a loose connection in this wire that is erroneously triggering the message.

Where is this wiring harness? Maybe I can jiggle and secure the wires.
