Hello.

One of mine appears to work. I've seen it spray straight up in the air once or twice when I operate the front wiper wash manually!? There does not appear to be a button to operate them manually?

Ah....that makes sense. Thanks. I guess one has burst back to life....suppose I should try aiming it at somewhere useful....like at pedestrians.

I have post-facelift disco (2004) and the headlight washers do not work. Any ideas as to what might be the problem?
Cheers.

I don't get the headlight washing thing....even more so when there are no mini wipers.

Mini wipers **** me off. There is so much to go wrong with them and in my experience they never seem to actually wipe the headlights properly.

Actually, when mine worked they were quite good, they managed to wash off the mud while going through rivers and other wet mud.

Lost mine when we fell off a wall, some idiot in the maketing dept. must have thought they were a selling point, only marginally better than having wipers down there
