does any know how to disable the headlight washers? these things chug the washer fluid like there's no tomorrow.

 

why not just pull the lines and plug them with screws?

I dont have them, just a thought.

 

There was a thread way back when that complained vociferously about the US DM models not having headlight washers and cooled seats! I guess that it works both ways for our Canadian cousins!

 

Just curious: how do you operate the headlight washers? Separate switch or with the windsheild washers?

 

I did not know we had head light washers. Does my 2006 RL have them?

 

only cdn models have em...as for the operation:

off: when headlights are off
on: when headlights are on

no switch...it would be cool if there was one

yeah i may have to plug the line...i should check to see if there is a separate fuze

 

So you are saying that the washers are squirting water the whole time that the headlights are on?

 

The OM shows there is a separate switch for the headlight washers, to the right of the side mirror controls, it is the blank cut out on the panel.

The headlight washers can be
operated at any time by pressing the
headlight washer button located next
to the steering wheel column. The
headlights must be turned on to use
this button. In addition, the headlight
washer operates when the
windshield washers are first turned
on.

The headlight washers use the same
fluid reservoir as the windshield
washers.

And in case you want to know, yes, the reservoir is much bigger in the CDN models, 6.5l vs 2.5l
