All they've done is cost me $80 in the past year to replace the stupid chrome covers when they popped off while I was driving.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

According to my car's option sheet I have the Litronic headlight (601) & Washer (288). Car also has the chrome plastic oval part on the assembly. Question is the headlight washer doesn't seem to operate when I pull the windshield washer stalk toward me. What am I missing here? Thx for all replies.

POST 3Original post

Doesn't the headlight washer work by pushing forward on the stalk?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thx guys, worked when I pushed stalk forward. Getting to know this car through and through thx to this forum!

POST 6Original post

Stupidest option ever, wish my car didn't have them. All they've done is cost me $80 in the past year to replace the stupid chrome covers when they popped off while I was driving.

I believe the washers are required by law on Xenon lights and higher power Halogens in Europe.

POST 8Original post

Hi there, wondering what is the round controller on the left of the radio with sort of a windshield wiper figure for? It's like a volume controller goes left and right, no push no pull.

POST 9Original post

It's to regulate the interval of the intermittent wiper (lowest stalk position).

POST 10Original post

Quotes source post: 17208468

Correct! Turn left and the wiper interval is slow, turn right and it speeds up.

POST 11Original post

Glad someone revived this... I couldn't figure it out but it didn't annoy me enough to look it up so thank you.
