Does anyone know if there is a way to leave the headlight washers in the extended position ?
I'm looking to have them in the extended position as I have to service one of them and re aim the nozzle on another.
Pulling the flap on the bumper down is straight forward, however, getting the washing system to extend outward and remain in that position is what I'm looking to do.
Man, that’s old school. This is the W212 section and we don’t have washers on our cars anymore. I had those washers in my old C32 AMG and hated them. They spray the whole front of the car when they spray. Just open the door and pull that Alien set of teeth out with your hand.

I have washers on my 2010 E550 like I also had them in my 2011 E350.
My mistake! My 2010 E550 had them. They triggered every so often and timed with wiper use. I totally forgot about that since MB removed the button to operate them at will.

They had them from 2010-2013 when they still had bixenons available. Once they went to LED in 2014-2016, they disappeared. I believe it was every 10th spray when the headlights were on.

I need exactly that and have been looking for an answer for months. If you found a solution please let me know...
the site opened up fine for me. I would scan your computer for Malware.
My virus protection informed me immediately of phising sites the link tried to take my computer to. Perhaps some others here should check if indeed their computers were compromised. Mine was not thanks to the protection I run.
It works for me and others. I've got better things to do than shi* like that.
Maybe you should check YOUR computer before pointing fingers !
Well good if you did not do it but this does not mean your link does not have a bug in it.
Pointing fingers...it may look like it but I don't know you and you don't know me. There are way too many scammers around and I have grown sensitive to them. After clicking your link I got two warnings immediately after clicking it. This is not co-incidence. your link is no good/safe and if anyone clicks it without alarm means their protection is no good against it.

In your humble opinion.
One thing for sure, none of us are perfect.
Perhaps you could reach out to the people at Virustotal as well and let them know.

Hi! Im trying to solve a situation on my E220, this is the problem, I have xenon headlights, and therefore i have washer instaled in front bumper, but there are no wires connected onto pump, i know its supposed to be conected somewhere in SAM module but have no idea where exactly, and why is it even disconnected and why are wires removed. I want to connect it back as it was so if someone can give me some wiring diagram that would be very helpfull. Thanks! Pump is here, but nothing connected to it

seriously? I work for one of the biggest(if not THE biggest) tech companies in the world, and my company's firewalls saw nothing, no issues. Very seriously doubt you have better malware detection than we use...lol

Mover,
these are powered by water and only extend when the proper pressure is exerted on the nozzle assembly from the pump. To service them without removing the front bumper cover, you can just reach down and grab the head and pull it straight up(they do lean forward at the top a little, just fyi). Be careful and do not twist or rotate the head too much to avoid snapping it off. You'll have to hold it up while you work(or brace it somehow?) but you can adjust the nozzles and then cycle the washer button to test.
I have an E350 2013 with the winter package which includes headlight washers, they work every fifth time you use the windshield washer with the headlights on, I miss the button to activate them. I think I.ve only seen them work two or three times in the last six years. I had a 03 S class that they leaked on, I just pulled them out carefully and replaced the o-ring in the fixture.
