The little sensor is a headlight washer - standard equipment on UK cars

And there's 4 of them aswell and they all work, never used them though

How do you switch them on? Like where is the switch etc. Any pics of them working or the switch?
Sorry it's just we didn't get them and I am interested.

They work if you wash the windscreen when the lights are on. I'm sure tcuk can put up some pics as my car is JDM and doesn't have them.

Now there's a challenge. Press the button inside the car AND take a photo of the washers spraying the lights outside at the same time!!

Leave it with me, I'll sort something out. In the meantime here is a pic of the button inside the car!

[BigAl_UK]

Interesting, you have a separate button not the auto cleaning when lights are on one....

I'm sure you can get a friend to take the pic Or failing that you could bridge the relay

[tcuk]

To be honest Al I wasn't aware that you could get them other than a seperate switch like mine. It would make sense to have the control on the lever wouldn't it But saying that how much stuff is on them already.......I still get confused now!

LOL, that's the point - it's a clever switch - you clean your windscreen and if the lights are on it cleans them too. I don't know if the facelift UK car is the same as my pre-facelift JDM but it took me ages to work out how the windscreen washer works - I kept pulling it back like you normally do on most cars and that just wipes the windows once - there's a button on the end that operates the washer

[tcuk]

On mine is as it should be pull the lever towards you and it washes and wipes 3 or 4 times. It was the light washers that got me. Spent ages, pulling, pushing, twisting, you name it. I had to get manual out in the end. Felt a right spanner when saw there was a seperate button, but even then it wasn't over as I didn't know the lights had to be on, so I was topping the water bottle up, checking to see if it had its own little supply. It was my neighbour over the road who has the same car as me that told me the lights had to be on.
Typical us fellas, rushing in thinking we know it all......

Really cool man. I always wondered what those blank spots were for on my dash. I just put my switches for various mods there.
Thanks. I'd still like to see what they look like working if you can manage it.
