‘Twas part of an option pack, (I think lights and vision )What! I never knew that….. have I got them on my 2020 Coast?
Edit: yes I know I could go outside and ave a butchers but it’s too flippin cold right now
My Cali has Xenon lights fitted with washers. Yesterday I had an initial panic whilst driving in the day when there was a cloud of what I thought was steam from the bonnet area round the headlights. I then realised that I had just activated the washers and the lights were also receiving a jet. Strangely, I don't recall ever having observed this before in my two plus years of ownership. Maybe to do with the extreme cold?the headlight washers work on every 5th pull of the screen washer.
If the headlight washer sprays whilst driving at night, it makes you think the lights are failing for a second until you realise what it is.My Cali has Xenon lights fitted with washers.

Many thanks, I left it and it’s gone back in! At least I know what they are nowHeadlight washer is correct
mine was fully out yesterday after using it on a run, (cleaning screen with washer stalk during driving )
mine pushed back after a few gentle in / out movements.
the headlight washers work on every 5th pull of the screen washer.
freezing water will be the issue, nothing to worry about unless it doesn’t go back.
if it concerns you pour a little warm water into it but note freeszing water caused the issue originally
There are many ‘discoveries’ we’ve made on our 10-month old Cali., often helped by this forum!Many thanks, I left it and it’s gone back in! At least I know what they are now.
The headlamp washers are heated on my 2012 with xenon lights, shame the screen ones aren’t too as using them when frozen blows the pump fuse.My Cali has Xenon lights fitted with washers.
