Description
The headlamp washer device is responsible for washing the front windscreen and the headlamp lens.
The headlamp washer function is managed by the Body Computer which automatically operates the headlamp washers - with the dipped or main beam headlamps on - when the windscreen washer is operated, via the lever on the right of the steering wheel.
The headlamp washer device consists of a detergent delivery pump and a nozzle in the bumpers that sprays a powerful jet onto the headlamp.
A timer operates the headlamp washer pump in a series of half second pulses.
The headlamp washer circuit is protected by a fuse and adjusted by a specific relay, located in the engine compartment control unit.
