    Headlight washers

    I haven't seen mine work yet so I am curious if anyone else can confirm they do work or not.

    Mine work... that is... when sitting on my driveway, and I activate the windshield washer, then get out to look, the head lights are wet.

    I tried again today and they work fine. Perhaps I didn't hold the switch back long enough. The manual shows they only work with the headlights on and once every 5 times you activate the windshield washer. Even though my DLRs are on all the time, it seems they only work when the actual headlights are on with the switch or when they turn automatically when it is dark enough.
