A picture of the "pole" Would be helpful so we know what you are talking about.

You can see the stump on the bumper. Previously a pole comes out when ignition is in acc.

Its not head light washer nor factory fitted. Its retrofitted to help judge the left hand corner of bumper. You can see it sticking out in this picture.

It's pretty unique to the Japanese market. I doubt you'll find much info on this. I'd start by checking the electrical system and the motor on that pole. you'll probably have to take the bumper off to get at it.
