Anyone else having issues with the headlight spray nozzles not working? Mine seems to work like 1% of the time since winter. Told the mechanic when I had my 5K checkup but he said it was due to the cold weather. Well now it's spring and still same issues. Oh well, I'm almost due for my 1 year oil change.

I had this happen to me once. The dealership said to "exercise" the system about twice a month to make sure things don't get "gummed" up.

Lucky you

I hate those things lol. Are they not operating when you press the washer button for the headlights, or not operating in concert with the windshield washers?

They don't work at all when I hit the button for the headlights. They work like 1% of the time when I operate the windshield washers.

I kind of hate those things as well as they don't really clean the headlights but makes it dirtier. I do use it to impress the chicks though. hahahahaaa

i might be mixing up with other cars, but do you need to have the headlights on in order for it to work?

Yes, headlights must be on.

SW17LS

The headlights must be on as others have said, I bet this is the issue.

praetor

Hmm, never really noticed that. I'll have to try it after work. Smack me silly if this is this is the issue. LOL

And I don't think the AUTO ON setting constitutes being on. The light switch has to be in the actual ON position.

That is true but the headlight washers will also work on Auto too so as long as its night time and headlights are on.

SW17LS

Yup, the lights have to be actively on.

As always you gentlemen are correct. The headlights have to be activated for the spray nozzles to work. You can leave the headlights in the auto position but as long as the headlights are on, the spray nozzles will work.
