All those lights & No Low Washer Fluid Light?
My windshield washers stopped working. There was no warning light but I checked under the hood and sure enough - out of fluid. I looked in the manual and noticed that the low washer fluid warning light is an option! So, now every other fill up I check the washer fluid when I check the oil. I guess there is only so much instrument panel area for little lights and they must trade the washer light for something else. Does anyone have a washer light? Or is it really there and mine is burned out. Talk about trivial. Oh well.

No washer fluid level light as far as I can tell... I ran out the other night also.
Fine by me as the washer fluid light tends to annoy me in the FC by flickering on and off when I go around a right-hander which can be distracting...

Good question, I made the assumption that we had the low washer fluid level light on the US cars also. I saw no light on my dashboard during the pre-start bulb check when they all light up like a Christmas tree.
I'm guessing the countries that have the headlight washers get the low washer light since they'd go through fluid a lot faster per squirt

."Warning lights for low fuel level, washer fluid , door ajar, check engine, oil pressure, volts, parking brake, high beam, air bags and safety belts"
I'm guessing they like it a lot better than our TMSU light :D - right y'all?
Here's what we get in the US:
"Warning lamps: parking brake, high-beam, check engine, oil pressure, battery charge, seatbelts, airbags, fuel"
US list above from the web site

does not include some lights such as TMSU, TCS, .... not sure why?
