Windshield washer fluid light came on - how do I turn it off
It came on after I approached a dip a little too fast where I had to brake abruptly. The braking was not enough to be able to lock the wheels although the car is equipped with ABS. On a car with no ABS it would not have been enough to lock the wheels. The car did not bottom out and hit anything, but the struts did take a good amount of sudden pressure. As soon as the car hit the dip, the windshield washer fluid light came on.
I checked the fluid reservoir and found the level low, so I topped it off. The light is still on.
I ran the washer for a good 20 seconds to allow the fluid to flow through, then top off again. The light is still on.
I have used the search in the forum and google and I have not found any similar issues on an SC300.
Any thoughts? Any experience with something like this?

I figure it must be a faulty sensor. Kinda like a fault e-brake sensor or sc400 coolant res. level sensor.
I say take it all apart one day, clean it all up, check all connections, and if light remains on, find a replacement.
