Re: Any R's here WITHOUT headlight washer fluid??????? (doubleb26)

Well, I looked at my headlight wipers and I see where the nozzle is that squirts the fluid. The problem is that there is NO HOSE on the inside of the wiper arm.

I checked both sides and there is no hose at all!!!!!!!

What is up with that??!!!!

Clearly, you need to get hosed.

Many R owners have been hosed by Volvo but I guess you are no one of them.

Lucky you!

Perhaps an unintended aquamist system?


Seriously, has the bumper cover ever been removed? If so, the lines were probably never re-connected. If not, then it sounds like a manufacturing issue.

Re: Any R's here WITHOUT headlight washer fluid??????? (Wayne T5)

The bumper was never taken off, but I did have my clear bra installed by a professional who took off part of the trim.

Thank God I have a clear cover over the headlights because the wipers only scratched my cover and not the headlight glass.

I have almost 15K, so I am going to have them see what is up. I also have the wiper fuse off but I would like to have them for the winter.

Yannis, what kind of car did you sell me? Stealing from your customers and trying to make an extra buck.
I'm going to have to report you!!

Did you take the wiper fuse out? Does it just control the headlight wipers? Or both sets of wipers? Maybe I have a fuse that is blown? Or is there a seperate fuse for the headlight washers?

Re: Any R's here WITHOUT headlight washer fluid??????? (Mash)

There is only one 15 amp fuse for both of the headlight wipers. I had to use it for my 3K fogs and will probably get a new one once the winter comes back.

It is located under the steering wheel. You will need the small-type fuses.
