Fit my 08 silverado, but I had to modify it to The size did not fit
3/5

However, I succeeded in getting it to My Chevy Silverado LS is a 2008 model with four cylinders. The vehicle is a three-cylinder V6 2WD. Despite the fact that it was not hurting, I kept putting off replacing it due to the fact that it was somewhat difficult to get to and that it wasn't hurting. As of now, the new sensor doesn't fit, since the girth is too small. I ordered the sensor and it didn't fit when it came in. As a result, I decided to break the float off the old sensor and replace it, and to just plug the hole in the tank rather than plug it in. I was able to get it to fit on my truck even though it's not a perfect fit.

This is good enough for the time being
4/5

A new version of the OE replaces the failed one. It's likely that this one will fail too. These were sourced from a Chinese factory by General Motors. There is no mechanical component to these switches, rather a magnetic one. When the old one was used, it was always on. This is annoying. As soon as I disconnected the electrical connector, I put it inside a plastic bag to protect it. The decision was made to get the truck up and running again in case it's sold. The car only has 31,000 miles so you might be able to The part can be replaced for a reasonable price. You won't have a hard time doing it. There are two screws in the upper part of the tray where the second battery is. Fluid is released from the bottle as a result of this. I was able to grab hold of the old unit in the wheel well and take it The upper screw should be replaced with a new one, electrical needs connected and electrical connections made. The screws that went into the upper rail were not all the same length, so I marked each one where the longer one should go. As a result, the program is working.

I installed this on my 2011 Tahoe after the DIC displayed the low washer fluid warning every time I started the car, pulled out of parking, or moved to or from, or when I shifted from park
5/5

It worked perfectly. During installation, I had to remove about six tenmm bolts to get the extra battery tray out and give room to slide the sensor into the bracket so it did not scrape against the metal.

As intended, the sensor worked, but here is a tip on how to install it
5/5

During the installation of my 2008 Chevy Avalanche, I installed this part. In order to insert the rubber grommet into the existing rubber grommet, I had to insert the new one into the existing one, since the new one was of a smaller diameter and would not have a good sealing capacity. In order to hold the two grommets together, I used super glue. the installation of the device had been completed, the remainder of the installation was as described by several other people.

Problem with the warning for low washer fluid levels has been resolved! As with a lot of Chevy SUVs &amp trucks, I had this problem Those who own trucks
5/5

When filling washer fluid, there is still a low level warning - The window washer fluid needs to be filled up. This Display Warning has been happening for several months now because I own a 2011 Chevy Avalanche LTZ. To sum up, do not order a replacement sensor until you remove the existing one. There are some sensors that vary (angle of plug connection) based on the make and model of your vehicle. For my Avy, the ACDelco 20999338 GM Original Equipment Windshield Washer Fluid Level Sensor was the best match. Put the plug in and press the button You can play now and the problem has been.

For some reason, my 2011 Sierra reported that my windshield washer fluid was low
5/5

The message I had ignored for four years finally made sense to me, and so I decided to It took 15 minutes for me to install this part after searching for it on YouTube and buying it. It has now been removed from the list of false windshield washer fluid messages. It has taken me four years to fix this. I do not know why I waited so long.

The fit of the original and recommended tanks was not correct
3/5

Fit my original tank well, but not well enough. To make it fit, I had to make some modifications. In order to make it look full, I had to thicken it up. Using some Teflon tape, I made the ice cream cone a bit wider and then I added a small o-ring to secure it Seal it with an O-ring to ensure it is tightly sealed. It's fortunate that my ingenuity has kept working so far, but I am shocked that this didn't fit the way I expected it to.

The diameter of this sensor is smaller than that of the A sensor was installed in the factory, but its diameter was smaller than the factory installed sensor for fluid levels
4/5

It was installed on the factory sensor, so I used that rubber gasket. It took me several attempts and a lot of superglue to secure the factory gasket to the new gasket on the new sensor. There were just some parts that had to be repurposed. It works fine.
