Can’t clean your Toyota’s windshield because of an empty washer fluid reservoir, or is there a windshield washer symbol illuminating on your dashboard?  Learn how to fix the problem by adding windshield washer fluid to your Toyota. Adding windshield fluid is the same for all Toyota models, including Corolla, Camry, Rav4, 4Runner, Matrix, Sienna, etc.

2. Open the hood by pulling the release lever under the dashboard’s left side, driver’s side.
3. Go to the front of the vehicle and depress the safety lever under the hood to open the hood.
4. Locate the windshield washer fluid container. The wiper symbol shown on your dashboard is also shown on top of the cap for the windshield washer reservoir. 
5. Open the windshield washer fluid container and add your windshield washer fluid until the level is two inches below the top of the cap.
