Hi Guys,does anybody know how the heated washer jets work.Are they electric and on all the while,is it just the nossles,or is the water some how warmed up.Are they heated in the summer also?or do the work in acordance with a heater setting.  I have a LR2GS with privacy glass and winter pack

i have always presumed they worked with the heated front screen, PROG button Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Thanks NPINKS but may be you are right.But with heated screen on i wouldnt use the washer jets.Its the frozen nozzels in the cold weather that i thought the heated jets would prevent. I have a LR2GS with privacy glass and winter pack

I think that the heated nozzles are on all of the time, we only notice them in cold weather, their job is to keep the very fine orifices clear. The pipes etc rely on engine heat to keep them free. Like most motors the reservoir is packaged down between the front bumper skin and the wheelarch liner where it gets very little radiated heat. Never seen a motor with a heated reservoir so keep adding the winter screenwash.
In cold weather I keep a washing up liquid bottle filled with water in the door pocket so that I can squirt windscreen through open drivers window just in case, not a pretty solution I agree but better than an opaque salt obscured windscreen on the motorway. still pining for my 3dr, no removeable hardtop, no drop glass tailgate, no roof rack, no pockets everywhere to stow all that man kit

I assume that these only come with the winter pack............coz I don't have em

They are part of the cold climate option pack

But they still freeze up over night!! This happened to me last winter, after a hard frost, probably the only time the car was left on the drive instead of being in the garage!, I went to use the washers after the heated screen did it's thing and they were frozen!

Had them checked out and all was well. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........
