Nick The Greek 0 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 only noticed this today after i picked up my car. my '99 is200se has a headlight washer switch, but no headlight washers! it's just got what i can best describe as a raised blanking off plate. is this standard?

Bazza 2 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 that raised blank off is your washer !! get someone to press it ...and watch them little sprayers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bazza 2 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 i did, and nothing happened........... i take it theres something not working there.......... think you have to have your lights on ....or something else ......at the same time ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ColinBarber 1,939 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Yes the lights have to be on before they will work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ifraz 0 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 The lights need to be on and you need to keep the button pressed for it to spray. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ifraz 0 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I hate using mine. It makes a right mess over the bonnet. :o Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ColinBarber 1,939 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Yes it's more of a bonnet washer than just a headlamp washer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick The Greek 0 Posted July 17, 2004 Author Share Posted July 17, 2004 yeah, i'll agree with that. got me wet and i was by the drivers door pressing the damn button! hmmmmm... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aido 45 Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 OT but has anyone turned these around yet so they fire forwards -would be a right laugh when you're stuck in traffic or want the person in front to get out the way :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iains 0 Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 That would be funny - again, a bit OT (sorry) but I use mine to get rid of those annoying windscreen wiper people. Goes like this.... "Windscreen Gov? "No thanks" "Only take a sec" "No, sod off" "Oh its dirty, I'll do it anyway" Iain hits wipers and headlights spray as well, just as bloke is leaning over my bonnet - Ha Ha. Lights to Green - see ya! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SHAHZ 0 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 I hate using mine. It makes a right mess over the bonnet. :o Same here...still cool though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuwood 0 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Do's anybody know if or how these can be turned off??? Only ask because mine come on when I have the lights on & use the windscreen wash & its normally just after I've spent half a Sunday cleaning the car, leaving streaks all across the bonet. Cars a 53' SE Auto. Cheers Guys. Stuart! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SwampDonkey 0 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I think that if you've got the lights on and use the windscreen wash button, the headlamp washer only fires the first time you press. Agreed it's a pain in the backside though. I would also be interested in hearing if anyone has disabled this. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
