Disabling Headlight Washer
Can anyone please point out which fuse to take out to disable the headlight washer? I want to be able to use windscreen washer and not activate headlight washer when doing so.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

yes it may use a little more washer fluid, but in all reality it is not that expensive of stuff
edit: btw most people won't have that feature, so they don't have the wiring for it, so they don't know what fuse to pull out to disable it (or even getting wiring diagrams for it either)
edit: edit: or are you in Canada actually?

[QUOTE=friesm2000;12760871]WHY? it's a safety feature, cause if your windshield is dirty, your headlights are more then likely also dirty, so they help maintain maximum visibility, so you are able to see fully

I agree. A few of the Audi's I had were equipped with them, and I think it's a great feature (especially this time of year here in the Northeast). Oh, and though they activate with the windshield washers, it's only when the headlights are on so they don't use up as much fluid as one might think.

not totally sure on that bit, but still vary possible though
and i was thinking it's not only a safety feature for the driver, but also others on the road too, in that when the headlights are dirty they can give off some weird glare (especially when you start getting onto the back roads with ABSOLUTE no artificial lighting other then your headlights ; ie: canyon/mountain roads) and such from the dirt distorting the light pattern, putting the light into oncoming traffic's eyes
