B0114 covers actuator L. Stellantis STAR case S2123000051 (2021, Jeep Grand Cherokee) describes a front camera washer pump that stopped spraying when the reservoir ran low although the cluster showed no low-fluid warning; a new pump, reservoir or level sensor did not help, and engineering was still investigating. Ford's German application DE102018109892A1 shows a quite different actuator: a magnet that squeezes a flexible chamber next to the camera, with one-way valves at inlet and outlet, triggered at ignition on, in reverse or by the wiper lever, plus an optional float reporting a low level. Washer level codes form their own row from B011C. Which camera L serves is not published; no maker documents B0114.

Likely causes

Pump or actuator L damaged after running with a nearly empty reservoir

Open or shorted wiring to actuator L

Level sensor not warning in time, so the actuator runs without fluid

Symptoms

Camera wash stops working while the reservoir is low, without a low-fluid warning
Front camera view remains dirty after a wash request
