Headlight Washer Nozzle Missing
Hi guys, 1 of the 2 left headlight washer's nozzles/heads on my 02 CL500 is missing. It appears that it had popped out & fell off from the pressure so it sprayed lots of washer fluid whenever I activated the washer via a switch on my dash right next to the light switch. I took a quick look at the telescopic arm with the 2 nozzles/heads attached at the tip of it, looks like it can be removed from the assembly via a plastic tab so can the arm or the nozzle/head be replaced instead of the entire pump? Also, is there a connector somewhere that I can disconnect to remove that function since I hardly use the headlight washer? Thanks.
Someone had mentioned in another post that the system will activate the headlight washer if the headlights & the windshield wipers are on after 5 swipes interval since the newer models no longer have the headlight washer's switch. Not sure if it's also applicable to the old 02 w/ the switch?? I've just washed the car so don't want to run the test just yet as I don't want to have washer fluid all over the hood & fenders
I've already looked for the info in the manual but it's worthless. Anybody knows?
