hi all ,i replaced my washer bottle that doesn't have a low level sensor,my question is can i join any of the wires to fool it so it thinks there is a sensor there until i get a new one.
 
Couldn't you have pulled the sensor out of the old bottle and put it in the new one? I thought it was just a rubber bung with a 2 prong plug in it?

Either way, yes you can (I did on my last car) - just join together the two wires that went to the bottle and this should kill the warning.
 
old bottle was gone off car along with the sensor,but is now sorted tks for the reply
 
Alternatively ground out the sensor pin on the cluster.
 
I mean if you need to disable the washer warning because no sensor is fitted, you can connect a wire from the cluster to the chassis/ground & this will tell the car the sensor is fine & not warn you.
