If jumpering didn't fix it, I'd have to guess it's the (expensive) relay at
fault, since that's where the actual sensing function happens.
Washer fluid - ya got me.. bad sensor or wiring (or ground!) I guess. My
solution would be to disable to the washer fluid sensing entirely via
VagCom. It would be nice to have just a light telling me when the fluid was
getting low, but apparently VW decided that an extremely loud and annoying
BEEEEEP was required, and that was just too much for me, so I turned it off.
(man, why do people post answers when they haven't even read the questions?)
