Is there a way to turn off the darn headlight washers?

Thumbs down Is there a way to turn off the darn headlight washers?

I'm getting fed up with having to buy so much washer fluid for my '05. It has those crazy powerful headlight jet-cleaning action monstrosities that I don't need and boy are they thirsty. I know a possible leak will be thrown out there, but it sure doesn't have one.

Is there any way of turning them off that's easily reversible for when I sell the car? I doubt there's a specific fuse for it but I haven't checked.

Any suggestions please and thank you?

Believe it or not, I was thinking about this same thing yesterday as well. My plans are to clamp the hoses that lead to each washer nozzle.

Yea, you will need to disconnect the hose that leads to them and cap it off. The best place would be before it t's off.

My G/F put a wooden peg in the tube.
