The headlight washers are part of the cold weather option package. Do you have heated seats ? ? That is generally a tip off that you do. Don't know what year your car is - update your profile ... that would help.

That is true. The headlight washers are part of the cold weather package, but you can have heated seats without that package. I do.

True, so you can have one without the other ... OH - aren't those words from a song ?!?!

I am sorry about your absence of 'package'

How's the EGG ... is it still burning?

You're not missing much, I always find myself feathering the lever to wash my windshield as not to trash the rest of the car.

Just turn off the head lights and the head light washer is also turned off.

Really? My headlights are always on auto, I'll turn them off and give that a try tomorrow. Learn something new everytime I log on to this forum
