I have filled to the top the washer fluid bottle, and every time I start car I have to push reset when the alert comes on. Anyone had this problem?
 
You'll have to unplug the sensor and short the wires together. You can do this by cutting the harness off and connecting the two wires. I've also heard people inserting a mini fuses or paper clips into the connector. I cut mine off last winter and soldered the wires together, haven't had any issues.

If you want to do it the right way you'll have to pull the bumper and replace the sensor/Resv bottle.
 
Well it already is useless when it's broken. Pulling off the bumper and buying an entire wiper fluid bottle assembly (only way to fix it) for a silly sensor that tells you that you're out of fluid is not the best use of time and money.

I agree. Thanks for the reply.

Not the PUMP wires.. The Sensor! ..pump will still work (if there's fluid in the tank)

If the pump is cracked or the seal leaks, you can reach it from the top, remove the light housings cover. New pump from O'Reilly is like $10
