Question Washer fluid indicator mod if possible ???

HI
As far as i know only canadian versions of TL have the washer fluid indicator on cluster (thats what owners manual says)


Do you know if it's possible to get some part from acura like sensor or something and make it work on US versions ????? Couse I belevie that cluster is the same they only didn't install the sensor

Let me know what you think

Thanks
MARCIN

Check it every oil change? I dunno I dont have a problem with it. I check it when I feel like it or the fluid looks like its coming out weak lol. Either way I usually wash the car every week and rain x the hell out of my windows lol.

Have you done a search?? I've seen this discussed before. Not sure what the outcome was, because, like you said, I just don't really care.

Here ya go. I hate doing other people's foot-work, but I got interested again and decided to look for myself. Looks like its not possible (at least not easily).

The alarm that precedes the visual warning is a bit distracting though. I had this come on when I was driving down the highway. I thought something had malfunctioned.
