C5 ii service light comes on when I spray windshield washer fluid?

Post by AlvinCitroenC5 »

As the topic says, my C5 ii service light comes on when I spray windshield washer fluid. I never notice that until yesterday. Can someone let me know if they experienced the same thing before? Thanks.

I think it may be telling you the washer fluid is low? Have you tried topping it up? Is there no accompanying warning messages on the central display?

what wheeler said! There's no other warning just the service light on the MKII.
Add about 5 lts of washer fluid and all will be well again....

XM will do the same - flash a dash warning of Low Level only when the washers are used.
