Default NEED HELP.

Hello,

I currently have a 2002 honda civic LX coupe, 2 door, and i am having some problems. I am in need of some help on two topics. First one Being since I have bought my car, my windshield washer fluid light has remained on the whole time, even when it is full of fluid. Any ideas on where the sensor is that would be causing the light to stay on or other ideas why it may remain on?

Second, I recently had my back windshield shatter for no reason, no vandilism nothing, and now i can hear what seems to be glass moving around in the top back underneath the panel where the speakers are, and my speakers have also become distorted. How do I take that back panel off to get where the speakers are and to clean up the rest of the glass that may be sitting there? It seems to be held in place by other panels around the side of the car. Do i need to take of the side panels as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. The sensor is located on the windshield washer bottle located in your engine bay. You will have to take off the bumper to access the sensor.

2. pull down the back seats and you should be able to access your speakers and figure out how to pull off the panels

my answer is only for you to remove your back panel. i don't know how familiar you're with your honda but here's a quick brief and how to remove the back panel.

removing your rear left and right padded parts for your seats. fold your seats forward.

start removing the plastics panels on the floor from each rear door and work your way up to the back panel.

remove the column panels at the back.

now remove the back panel.

X2 you'll get chewed up.

Instead write it up something like:

"washer fluid problem and rear panel problem"

something more detailed.
