I need some pics. Either the one I got with my devils own wont work with the app. Or I need to get something else. I can not find a spot low enough in the factory washer tank that this will mount

Is that the level sensor in the top of the tank, closer to the left side intercooler strap.. Does that sensor come on when fluid is close to bottom of tank. If so Im guessing sensor is longer to get close to bottom of tank??

Talked to Julio $40 shipped for sensor and seal, and led which I dont need.. Just want to make sure before I order.

Yep, thats the sensor to the left side in that picture with the 90° fitting on top (which is actually the wire coming from it). And yes, it activates the LED to turn on when it gets low near the bottom.

yes, its just a plug. The whole tank (plugs, low level sensor, etc) were already pre-installed on my tank when I bought the entire kit from Julio and it has all worked great so far
