head light wash wipe system

[Bonymaenjack]

Good afternoon.
Does anyone have the following information. I'd like to know which pump on which windscreen washer bottle provides water to the headlights . I have the dual container system the smaller one is for the intensive cleaner but does that pump tee into the main windscreen supply ,any links information would be gratefully received .I'm presently reinstalling the system but from scratch so I'm not sure how the water pipe work is connected together

As far as I remember the cleaning solution goes up a separate pipe into y junction joining the the water feed and solution feed just before it reaches the nozzles on the bonnet. And I think the headlight wash system just uses water.

I'll try and take some photos for you tonight as I have the dual container system too and is still routed as per factory as far as I can tell!

Thanks , its what I suspect but before I cut and join etc I'd like to make sure , the electrical side isn't completed yet but I know the wipers and pump motors are working fine,
Cheers

Thanks for taking the time to look for me and post cheers , I've read this which confirms how the system works,. Thanks again

i"•Dual Washer Reservoir (This should come with two caps, one for the big tank, and one for the little with the red intensive fluid tag, and also a strainer for the big. The big tank has two holes where washer pumps will be placed. The washer pump in back will be for the headlamp washers, and the pump in front is for the windscreen. The Small reservoir is simply for the intensive wash which sprays on the windscreen. Beyond the pump holes, you should have the thing that looks like snake teeth for the washer fluid level sender, and also in the middle of the two tanks, there should be a metal clip in which the wash/wipe interval control unit screws into)"

Sweet no worries! I did see a tube at the back like it said but couldn't see where it joined and was in a hurry today so couldn't take out the washer tank to have a look. Hopefully that post got everything you need? If not I'm off work tomorrow and can have a closer look if you have some specific questions
