Where is the button for the headlight washer jets on a 172 mk2? Cnt find it anywhere!

 

[daviebroon]

Lights on and they should work with the screen washer jets.

Never had a look to see if they work with the main washer jets (by that you do mean windscreen dont you?). I just thought they would have a separate button like most cars! lol

I try to never wash my windscreen at night, as i don't like using the crappy headlamp washers, as it doesn't take much for them to start leaking.

 

[Brasseye]

there isnt a button....

just hold the main windscreen washers on
while your lights are on

 

[daviebroon]

I have never used mine for the same reason, that said I have never used the screen ones either!

whats wrong with you people? how the hell do see where you're going half the time?

Clean the front screen after every trip and sometimes in between with Glass Cleaner and a cloth - the screen is always crystal clear... Not using it in the wet helps too! lol

 

[daviebroon]

lol freak

Well at the moment, i'm having to clean my windscreen by hand as my windscreen washer pump broke in late july, around 7,500 miles ago

Hopefully get Mike at Rentech to sort them out when she has her next MOT.

The headlight washers are leaky piece of crap, they look stupid too, I am seriously thinking of removing them. The water leaks out of my left one, leaving little or no water in the washer bottle to wash the fookin windows !!!
It's the only fault I have with mine.

 

[Rob.]

What good are they any way ???

^^^^^^LOL

Mine leaks aswell i just find if i dont fill the washer bottle up to much then it doesnt leak .

Dont think you can remove them or it will fail the MOT

 

[Fred@BTM]

LMFAO at this thread!

 

[jph172]

Yes 1 annoying thing about this model is that allthought they come with automatic headlights u still have to actually turn the lights on the stalk to get the flasher to work as well as the headlight washer jets!

I think you may well be mistaken there about failing an MOT. It is not an essential requirement that headlights should have washer jets on them the same goes for the rear window wiper.

I'm glad that Freddie is having a good laugh at this thread!!! LOL
Fookin headlight washers
