If anyone else's SC does not work this way, let us all know.

I had just washed and waxed our SC the other day and had it in the garage where I also changed its wiper blades. After changing the wiper blades I wanted to test them, so I pushed the button to release windshield washer fluid onto the windshield and after pushing the button the headlight washers squirted for about a second or two before the fluid was released on the windshield. I though oh no, I have an electrical problem or perhaps some sort of leak around the headlamp washers. I looked all over and could not find a leak, but did notice that my garage was just dark enough to automatically turn on the headlights. So, I tried it again, same thing happened, the headlamp washers squirted for a second or two before the windshield was squirted. Bottom-line, when pressing the windshield washer button with the headlights on or at night, it will first wash or squirt the headlamps and then the windshield.

After eight years I found that driver seat memory buttons also respond when I have car in park, keys not inserted, and door open. Seat moves to pre-programmed positions once.

Just checked this and you are right! In my year (2006) you can do this as many times as you want, not just once. The door must be open for this to work.

are you saying they are 2ohm speakers? like the Bose system in my Infiniti? oh man, PITA, but sound so much better than most aftermarket stuff.

the lock button for the power / snow / vsc actually opens a coin tray
the lock button for the power / snow / vsc actually opens a coin tray, if it's not stuck shut with soda. 😜

passenger washer?
This may be a weird thread or maybe this will be the only post. But the topic is surprising things you discovered about the SC long after first owning it. I mention this because I had two just this week, after owning the car for almost two years.
Tonight I saw a little button next to the mirror control which I never noticed before. Pressed it and all of a sudden the headlights get washed! Who knew?
I have all my listings in the phone directory truncated so that they will best fit into the 8 characters allowed. By accident discovered that the "one touch dialing" menu will accept 14 characters. Re-did those and they look much better. Surprise, surprise.
