Default Bad luck continues....

Recently i was driving and the front of my car was flushed with washer fluid. It completely emptied the tanks I filled. The fluid seemed to be coming from the headlight washer. Has this ever happened to anyone? This happened 2 days ago and now my check engine light is on.... Something tells me the deal is going to have me bend over and grab my ankles.

you most likely have a headlight washer assy cracked and leaking fluid.
the check engine light is completely unrelated; it's a seperate problem.

same thing happened to me a few years ago. washer fluid leaked and light came one. I brought it into the dealership and they took care of it under warranty. Or you can get the part at one of our sponsored vendors here on CL for a better price.

good luck...teeman3

Do you mean at all or when you put the car in reverse? If in reverse, the mirror switch needs to be in the left or right position - not in the middle.
