W126 headlight washers not working
Hello,
On my 1990 300SE the washer fluid for the headlight wipers does not come out but the windshield washers work fine. I have replaced the small nozzles located in the wiper arms (because I thought they were plugged) but again it did not solve the problem. Is there and aux. washer pump for the headlights?

Were the headlights on when you tried??? Do the wipers wipe??? The hose could be crimped under the washer tank...

There are two pumps attached to the washer reservoir by the battery. One is for the windshield, one is for the headlights.

And, as has already been stated, the headlights have to be on before the wiper/washers work.

Yes the headlights wipe when the lights are on and I put the washers on.
I will look for crimped hoses but I did do a quick check and didn't find any. Might be a bad pump motor? Dan

At the washer bottle there are two pumps. You should hear them whirring when you activate the washers. Switch the hoses on the pumps and see if water comes out at the headlight washers.
