IC Spray Light

dreamvang · 03-21-2008, 02:57 PM

Just recently, I've noticed that when I'm driving spritely going from 3rd gear into 4th gear, my IC-spray light on the dash will flash for a split second and then disappear. Does anyone know what could be causing this? This issue just started happening recently.

"yeah, fill up your ic spray tank, it's almost empty"

simple...

Thanks for the replies, I'm guessing it has to do with the sensor in the tank, makes sense!!! thanks.

happened to me last summer, but only at WOT, i didn't understand what was going on and was scared that i blew something in the engine til i figured it out.

make sure that you refill the tank with the right blend dihydrogen monoxide or you risk contaminating and damaging the top mounted intercooler. I would suggest in purchasing a large amount of DHMO as there is a petition to ban the substance. I personally carry a vastly large supply as to when its banned I will be able to replenish the tank in a proper manner.

Baby food AND beer!

so mine is almost empty as im getting the same issue with the light peeking on here and there on turns and whatnot. is DHMO the only other substance people use with the water? heard about alcohol too but only due for the winter when the water could possibly freeze

Are you serious?

You know DHMO is a joke right? DHMO is water.

my bad...didnt read/notice the ban flyer

haha, i love how these threads pop up every once in a while. mine's doing the same thing now, my DHMO must have just evaporated since i haven't used the sprayer all winter.

general tip for the future: if a light that has something to do with a fluid comes on under hard accel, decel, or turning, then most likely whatever fluid that light relates to is low.

Just needs some more water. I think I go through 2~3 tanks of distilled water each summer.

maybe a dumb question here, but will the water not freeze come winter time? I'm not sure the insulation in the tank, but I know it's in the trunk on the passenger fender well...I'd hate to have that thing explode on a cold night
