    Get a friend to stand outside the car and look at the front when you pull the washer fluid handle to check that is works, this is they way to activate headlight washers. And like the others say, the headlights has to be on.

    The washers activate when you pull the washer fluid handle, when the headlights is on. And when you let go of the handle it deactivates.

    If you twist the passenger side headlight washer nozzle 30 degrees to the right you can blast people on the sidewalk while driving.
