How the headlight washer nozzle is attached. How to assemble a headlight washer with your own hands: Choosing materials, assembly, installation

Installation of the washer flew

on the carChevrolet.REZZO.

Model of installed headlight washer : Sho-me, article 400-60-00000016, option with nozzles for spherical bumper . The cost of the set in retail in Moscow - from 1750 to 2300 rubles.

Additionally purchased equipment:

1) Tank of the glasswater for the car VAZ-2121 "Niva" (catalog number 21213-5203102-20);

2) Bracket fastening of this tank (catalog number 21210-5208154-00);

3) Cutting Corrugated Polyethylene Pipe with a diameter of 40- 45 mm (sold in construction and business stores);

4) Canister from a glass washer made of tight polyethylene.

Additionally manufactured equipment : Bracket mounting bracket to the car body (blank - metal (steel) plate measuring about 120 x 400 mm and a thickness of 1.5- 2.5 mm).

Before mounting the Faroomyvator (hereinafter referred to as the FD), you must come up with the location of the switching button. Included with the FD comes the button that its external design, in my deep conviction, does not correspond to our car. In addition, I absolutely do not want to cut the dashboard to install this button.

In the left side dashboard Our car has a block consisting of two buttons (turn on the front and rear fog lights), Plugs (instead of the cruise control button, which we did not have it) and the storage gap for plastic cards.

I decided that it would be very convenient to include the FD, if it was possible to use the very "excess" button of the non-existent cruise control. So in the end and did.

Fine flat screwdriver neatly (you can start from the left nizhny Angle) We submit the entire block. And take it out. The two-working buttons are suitable for the wiring harnesses that we disconnect - the benefit there there are plugs. Connectors, by the way, are painted in different colors (white and yellow) - therefore, it will be impossible to confuse them with reverse installation.

Shot block we carry out home and start work. Remove the upper plug by roasting its locking petals on the back of the block. The housing and the outer outer ring of the attached bundle of the buttons are slightly calculated on the sharpener (you can use the file) so that the button can be inserted from the outside in the "hole" left by the removed cap.

As a result, the FD button was installed in the block and fixed by molten (and frozen, of course) polyethylene from the adhesive gun.

The thought was like - the FO button is inside, and the key is located above it, which clicks on this button. And the key to this should serve the same plug. But ... To use the plug in this capacity, it would have to (plug) to smite - that is, cut off from it rear partwhich it is attached in the block. Observing the principle "I am not harmful!", I went to another way, namely, made a duplicate plug, sings him.

In general, I had to open for a while "School of Young Sculptor named after Zurab Tsereteli".

To perform the operation, we will need: any epoxy putty (sold in "Auto parts", from 80 to 250 rubles per bank depending on the volume and manufacturer) and building gypsum (alabaster), which can be purchased on any construction market (bag 3 kg is worth order 70 rubles). In addition, it will be necessary to prepare the mixtures.

We take a suitable container and knead the alabaster in it - to the consistency of the good village sour cream (the one in which the "spoon is worth"). Shawk tank left-right until the surface of the mixture becomes smooth and horizontal.

Then press the removed plug into the surface (you can pre-lubricate it with oil or vaseline so as not to stick to the alabaster) - the front part down. In this case, it is necessary to achieve such a position so that the rear surface of the "key" part of the plug was strictly horizontal and coincided with the surface of the alabaster.

We are waiting for the soaring alabasra (20 minutes). Gently, in the direction strictly up, so as not to destroy our formal shape, take out the plug. We wash it out of lubrication and put it in the "long-range box" to the best times.

Then we prepare the putty (prevent it with a hardener with the existing bundle).

It should be noted that the "lifetime" of a high-quality epoxy putty is just 5-7 minutes - then it becomes very viscous. Pour putty in the gypsum shape and remove from the surface of the surplus. 20 minutes - and putty froze. We throw it out of alabaster shape, paint black paint (you can still cover with varnish). We got the key for our button. Of course, the key looks outwardly different from the original plug (rougher, or something) - but calm themselves to the fact that it did not have to spoil the staff part of the car.

From the reverse side of the freshly baked key (in the left half), blurred (another word not to pick up) with a drop of liquid polyethylene from the adhesive pistol. After frozen - more. Here such a goal is persecuted: taking into account the fact that the key will press the button with its right part, on the left part it is necessary to create a "pillow" of the same thickness as the protruding part of the button - in order for the key in the unnecessary position "sitting, as it should.".

After that, I flip now on the right side of the key with a small drop of polyethylene and quickly (until the polyethylene is not frozen) we put the key to the place - so that it is adjusted to the Mentioned polyethylene droplet to the FD button. In general, I got the first time.

The following pre-operation, which can also (and necessary), should be done in the home (in the sense of warm and dry) conditions - this is the fixing of the pump motor on the tank. The fact is that due to the inconsistencies of the standards, a hole under the pump is not suitable for our pump (our pump is larger and has a thicker intricate fitting). And on the housing of the tank of the tank, for which the motor is mounted, on the contrary - are located so that our motor is hanging in them. Therefore, we serve the fence hole in the tank to a diameter of 15-16 mm, send the sealing ring from the FD kit and insert the motor-pump meter. To prevent possible leaks, the edge of the cuff is recommended immediately before inserting into the hole to wash the sealant layer. The motor housing is fixed in a tank niche with drops of molten polyethylene from the adhesive gun, causing these drops onto regular tank fasteners.

Another small one preparatory operation - Advanced enclosures. In the photo, when the nozzle is turned into a profile, it is clearly noticeable that the profile of the nozzle ends from below the sharp fracture. For our bumper, this fracture is not needed, and the nozzle body needs to be modified (a file or even a sharp knife) so that the fracture is not.

Well, all - preliminary work performed, and you can start the installation of the Faromater.

Procedure (on points):

1) Open the hood.

2) Unscrew 4 self-pressing, fastening the decorative radiator grille. They are located on the top edge of this decorative lattice.

3) Gently twisted the grid with a small amplitude in the direction "Up-down" (achieving removal from two latches, holding the grille at the bottom of the right and left), remove it in the direction "forward along the car". Immediately after removing, pulling these two latches from the car body (they are easily removed after turning 90º) and insert them into response spaces on the removed radiator grille (should be up on the type "as if it was").

4) O. two two bolts (from above) and two nuts (front) on each block headlamp and remove alternately block headlights along with sub-battles "cilia" in the direction "Forward along the car". When removing, reflect two electrical discs on each block headla. Headlights from "Ciller" not separated!

5) Unscrew the bolt with a puck, fastening the filling throat of the regular tank of the glass wool, and then carefully remove the neck. This operation is needed to create the required volume of workspace.

6) In the cleared workspace, we see (if you look from above) with a pin, on which the terminal is screwed with a "mass" from the battery, and next to it (ahead, if you argue along the movement of the car) - two holes. These holes are threaded (under the thread M6) - and it is them that we use them for fastening the Tank FD. One bolt M6 is visible in the photo, which I screwed in a hole for sample to get into the hole to get into terms of compatibility.

7) The principle of fastening - the tank is hanging on its "native" plate, and this plate itself is three bolts M5 with nuts brings to our homemade bracket. The bracket, in turn, is attached to the car body with bolts M6 (turnkey size 10 mm) in those mentioned above (see paragraph 6) of the holes.

8) I do not bring any sizes of the bracket, because everything was noted, measured and cut off at the place. I will only say that the bracket is bent the letter "g". And so that the installed bracket does not scratch the car housing, I glued down to it several bilateral scotch strips (you can also use leaf rubber, but I took what was at hand). Thus, our tank FO is located on the left side of the car, in height - somewhere at the level of the tank of the glasswater.

9) Electrical connections (in a part concerning) were performed as follows: two minus terminals for one of the bracket mounting bolts, and plus terminal - under the M6 \u200b\u200bnut in the fuse block motor compartment (The photo shows the "Lacetti" block, because I forgot to take a picture of this business -but we have almost the same). The scheme from the FD kit, by the way, does not quite correspond to reality - here proper scheme (Fixed Mitya.)

10) Now the most exciting and scary - installing nozzles. Scary - because you need to drill a bumper (drilled not there - change the bumper). Manufacturers of the Faromywner suggest that the nozzles housing will be brought by self-drawing from the inside of the bumper lining. In our case, this can be done only by completely removing the bumper assembly, and then removing the lining from it. Naturally, in our handicraft conditions, this operation is almost impossible - among other things, we are also limited in time, because our task is to return home on a good car by the end of the day. Given just what we choose alternative option - Self-tapping screws will score from above in the nozzles housing, fastening in the bumper overlay.

11) Place the holes under the nozzle fittings. We perform holes, measuring left and right from cutting overlap under a number of 215 millimeters. In the altitude, the holes should be located so that the nozzle body is as tightly "sat down" on the bumper. In general, a dead seven times - one cut (or rather - drilled). Drill the holes with a drill ("crown" or "pen) with a diameter of 15 or 16 mm strictly perpendicular to the surface of the bumper.

12) Drilling holes, we clean the space under them from the foam (our task is to skip vertically down, parallel to the front surface of the bumper power beam, rubber nozzle hoses). In addition, using a round file or a drill with an arched drill with a diameter of 6-8 mm, we slightly expand the drilled holes (giving them a non-circular shape) so that through them it is possible to miss not only a round hose, but also a clamp fastening it on the nozzle fittings.

13) Having to mock the bumper, we skip down the hose in advance to the ads. Wherein one should take into account two important points: First, the caps of the screws attached in the kit may be too large diameter, and it can prevent the installation of a decorative nozzle cap; Secondly, the lower selflessness should not be too long, for it can pierce the hose, put on the fitting.

14) we caulate between the radiator and the bumper three end of the hose (one from the pump and two from the nozzles) and wear them on the appropriate (see the installation scheme attached in the FD kit) of the tonite fittings with a check valve from the FD kit. After that, the hoses are fastened to the elements of the design of the car by kapron screeds.

15) We extend (increasing) the Wire of the FD switching button (it is not clear why the FD manufacturers, knowing for sure that the FD switch button will be installed in the cabin, left such a short "stub").

16) stretch the Wire of the FD button into the cabin (how to do it, is described in my article on the installation of front parking sensors (/ Publ / 1-1-0-46), starting with paragraph 17).

17) Push the end of this wire into a flat terminal- "Mom" and connect this terminal to the FD button. We connect the second terminal to the wire on which the +12 V appears when the ignition is turned on.

18) We put the shot blocks (and, and the right header can already be finally fixed - we will not remove it anymore - and the left is just so temporarily). Be sure to close the hood, for now there will be a big fountain.

19) Pour a little water into the tank in the tank (as access to the tank neck is very difficult, then we use a screwdriver - for example, a metal pipe) and check the performance. If necessary, adjust the direction of the jets of the nozzles available in the FD key. The FD should work with the ignition on - comply with the remaining conditions (for example, the Middle Light included, the operation of the washer windshield etc.) we did not undertake.

20) if everything is in order, you can take again left Far And proceed to creating a fuel tank of the FD, for without it, pour the tank with water is a great art.

21) put the bulk of the tank of the glasswater tank in place.

22) Remove the tank cover and drill in it with a crown or feathery drill a large hole, the diameter of which should approximately coincide with the outer diameter of the narrow part of the corrugations. That is, the thought is understandable - the corrugated pipe should sit in the tank cover so as not to pop up from there, and at the same time freely in this hole.

23) Tinging the pipe into the lid (we do there for loyalty 4-5 corrugations rings) and screw the cover to the tank. We cut off the surplus of the pipe so that the upper cutter of the pipe (and the neck should still be at the throat under the throat) was at the level of the chip of the tank of the glasswater.

24) Again, we unscrew the tank cover of the FD and remove it along with the bulk tube. From the canister with a liquid (or, more convenient, from under the liquid) of the glass woolrometer, we cut a neck under the cover with carvings. This neck is speculating to our corrugated pipe and glue the molten polyethylene from the adhesive gun. The pistol should warm very well - so that its polyethylene at the same time melted also the material of the pipe and neck. And so that all this qualitatively welded into a single whole.

25) We put the finished pipe in place, hanging onto the tank cover. The top of the pipe is attached by the capronic tie to the neck of the glass wool tank. Now we have an almost professionally made a tank neck neck with a lid on a thread.

26) Finally, we finally put the left headlight and the radiator grille.

27) Collect the tools and ... Forward!

The headlight washer is considered to be surprised in the design of the car, but this is not so, especially if you have xenon. Any contamination of lighting devices not only reduces the diffuser light, but also changes the refractive indices, which may cause the blinding drivers.

What could be the headlight washer?

There are two types of this device, they differ in the principle of cleansing the diffuser. The inkjet headlamp is doing this with a good water jet under high pressure, which knocks all possible dirt. No other interference in the cleaning process is required. Today is the most popular type of washer, and everything rests on modern headlights, now they are widely plastic. Plastic does not tolerate any friction, so the traditional brushes are not suitable for him.

As it has already become clear, the second type of washer is brush. Everything is extremely clear here, the process is similar to the washing of glass: the water is lazy jets are fed to the diffuser, and the brushes that the headlight washer motor controls are diligently. But in the modern car, such a rarity is no longer found, because only glass can withstand such a cleaning scheme, and from this material are trying not to do in a mass industry. Therefore, on sale for independent installation You are unlikely to find such a kit.

The lid and the headlight washer nozzle, as well as other elements of the device

The washer consists of the following parts: control system, water tank, hose system and nozzles, pump. It all starts with a tank, where a sufficient amount of washing fluid should always be, usually water, but in winter it mixes with alcohol, or the tank is poured a special "non-freeze". Often, one tank is used to clean the glass, depending on the fluid flow, it can be 2 liters, and maybe all 4. Usually the increased volume is used if it is not one nozzle for cleaning each element, and several.

The pump ensures proper pressure in the system so that the fluid in the desired mode is sprayed into contaminated surfaces. He obeys electrical scheme Total cars and responds to control system commands. Hoses provide the delivery of fluid to spraying elements, they can be of different lengths, of course, it is dictated by the location of the tank in your machine. The headlight washer nozzle is responsible for efficient water spray to the diffuser and its rational spending.

The nozzle can be two species. The most simple in the design is the stationary sprayer, it is constantly in sight, because it is attached to the bumper, so when installing, count on some change in the design of your car. But the telescopic variety is hidden until it is used. The headlight washer nozzle cap thoroughly hides this useful attribute, it opens only by the management system command. But in the winter there can be a casus, this plug at some point will come true and will not open "according to your desire."

You can control the cleanliness yourself using the button, but you can set the intelligent control that will be different ways To determine the need of the scatterer in cleaning, and on its calculations will open the headlight washer lid, leading the system into action.

Installation of headlight washer with your own hands

First you have to buy a set of washer. They may differ in the list of parts, depending not only on the principle of operation of the device, but also from the decorative preferences of the car owner and the shape of the bumper of its car. For example, in some sets can enter the headlight washer nozzle, it will save your bumper from drilling, as all communications, whether single nozzles or even brushes installed on it. You can also always find the instructions, hoses, pumps and a tank (if you do not crash into the main glass cleaning tank) required relays.

Now everything is assembled, it's time to start. Installing the headlight washer of any kit begins with the adoption of some solutions. Open the hood and examine the tank, is it possible to get in it an additional hose, usually can be done in domestic carsBut foreign cars are more capricious. Therefore, we are looking for an extra bed under a new tank, it is better to place it away from the heating details. The solution to how to connect to the water source, you accepted, now find the place for the nozzles. Ideally, they are put opposite the optical center of the headlight, it is possible to calculate it in the drawing on the diffuser, the center is marked.

Opposite the center drilling a bumper, make a small hole, then expand it under your nozzle, so more rational than to reanimate extra millimeters. Drill fly from the outside of the bumper, so raises less paint.Secure the nozzles, and if they are not suitable for color to the bumper, take care of this nuance in advance. Now install the tank (if it is decided to put independent) and the pump. Each set is individual, so instructions will be attached to the purchase. It's time to spend all the necessary hoses, choose the shortest path, but beware of the heating surfaces.

Now the electrician time has come, the pump must be connected to a common power supply and output its control to a separate button or on a common glass washer. What is better to take, say hard, the opinions of motorists diverge. The button will require a lot of trouble on connecting, injecting, etc. But "sump" to a regular washer means increased flow Cleansing fluid, because the headlights will wash every time you want to arrange a wet glasses cleaning. After deciding and connecting the electrician, the installation can be considered completed.

Each driver wants to get the most comfortable conditions, so that his car is both beautiful, and convenient from the inside, and did not give extra hassle. One of the facilitating life of the driver of the device is the headlight washer. It helps to avoid unpleasant pastime for cleaning automotive lighting manually.

Instructions for self-assembly

The fact that it is, perhaps, knows every driver, and about what components it consists, how to install it personally, as well as how to operate - not everyone is heard. Proper operation of the purchased and installed device will extend his life, and you will save you to manually wash the lighting.

Tools and materials

The device includes the following components:

1. Rotary pump. It is installed to supply fluid on the nozzles. Thus, it creates the necessary pressure in the range of 0.2 MPa. The pump runs exactly as many seconds as the quality of fluid in the system involves.
2. Connecting hoses. Thanks to this device, the headlight washer nozzle is enriched with a liquid coming from the tank. Connecting hoses can be different and differ from each other relative to the material and length.
3. Control block.
4. Fluid tank. In some machines, the device can be located in the wiper tank, since their designs are somewhat similar.
5. Set of nozzles and fastening to the machine bumper. They can be two species: stationary and telescopic.

The device also contains a fuse block and wiring. It is designed to connect the pump with the machine system, as well as control its operation. For some cars, the instrument equipment may differ from the standard set. It depends on the car's optics model and distinctive features bumper. In any case, you can choose for yourself suitable optionwithout spending special efforts and means.

Processes

1. In the tank, it is necessary to drill a small hole with a diameter of 15 mm. It is prepared for the pump.
2. A sealing gum must be installed on the prepared hole. After that, you can install the pump.
3. If the case of the device is worse than the material from which the tank is installed, then the pump must be attached using high-quality tape. Some drivers do it anyway.
4. Next, the tank is set, next to which the headlight washer valve is installed.
5. After that, you can install nozzles. They are installed on the side of the center of the headlight, unless the xenon is installed on the low light switch. The headlight washer nozzle lid should be clearly in its place. Calculation can be made using a ruler so as not to be mistaken with the landing accuracy.
6. After the lid is in place, the hoses are connected to electricity.
7. By virtue of the headlight washer button.

On how to replace the device with your own hands, you can see in the video from the author Oleg Zuyeff.

Installation Guide

1. To establish a universal device, no special abilities will be required. The only obstacle with which the car enthusiast may encounter, this is an independent drilling of holes in the tank to secure the nozzles. To do this manipulation, you need to remove the bumper from the car and make several holes from the back side.
2. The headlight washer cover must be repainted depending on the color of the machine. After that, it is necessary to fasten the nozzles in the already prepared hole.
3. To install the pump in the car you need to equip the tank with another hole, then fasten the pump with the help of a tape. After the work done, you can mount the tank in a predetermined place. It is important that the tank is not located next to the components that are capable of gaining a high temperature.
4. After the listed actions, you can return the car bumper into place and shut down the work - mount hoses, valves and tees.

Exploitation

Operation will differ depending on the equipment and the selected installation option.

Let's say if the device is combined with the glass wipe button, then the fluid flow increases several times, because for the supply of high pressure water, it is necessary to simply add liquid to the tank.

To avoid abuse, you can connect the device to a separate button in the cabin. It is also convenient to winter time, After all, then water can spoil the pump pump. If fixtures for lighting are subject to the bumper when working, then the headlight washer motor will be damaged.

To properly operate the system, it is necessary to periodically test it. This will help prevent contamination of nozzles and extend the life to the device. Some drivers to keep the device in good form, when frosts are pulled out fuses from the system.

Video "Installing the device with your own hands"

How is the installation of the headlight washer, with your own hands, you can learn from the video.

Equipment modern car It is created to make the driver's ride and passengers safe on the roads. Each device improves driving quality and increases visibility. The headlight washer is one of these devices of facilitating driving under rainy weather. To install it in the bumper, a special hole is made. It is impossible to notice the installation location of the device, as it is hidden and put forward with the help of polls when turned on.

Materials for washer

The design of the device consists of the following elements:

• Control block;
• Tank for liquid;
• Hoses;
• Nozzles;
• Pump.

The tank is considered the main element of the design. It bloom in it, in which alcohol is added in winter or special fluidnot allowing it to freeze.

Hoses are used to deliver water to sprayers. The length of the hoses depends on the location of the tank.

The nozzle is used to spray fluid on the diffuser and its rational flow. The nozzle is made in two versions. Simple option The performance of the nozzle is a stationary sprayer, which is attached to the bumper. When installing such a sprayer, one thing is taken into account that the design of the car will change slightly. The telescopic nozzle is mounted in the design of the car and opens only when the system is activated. In winter, work fails due to freezing.

Also, here you will find everything about that and why do it at all.

How to make a headlight washer do it yourself

The headlight washer is a lightweight design that can be collected with your own hands.. To assemble the design, a set of inkjet washers is bought. It consists of two buildings of nozzles, so that they can be adjusted under different types bumpers. A tank is also purchased for assembling the washer. You can use a tank that goes in the set, but usually it is standard for two liters. If less or more volume is needed, then the container is purchased additionally. For assembly, you will need a fastener bar for a tank. The place to install the design must be carefully selected and measure. Now the assembly process begins:

• A hole for a pump with a size of 15 mm is drilled in the tank. A sealing gum is superimposed on the hole, and then the pump. If the pump housing is already greater than that of the tank brand used, the pump is attached using a tape. After mounting the pump, the tank is installed. Next to the tank is the valve-tee for the distribution of water.
• Next, go to the installation of nozzles. They are recommended to put them aside from the center of the headlight, if xenon is installed in the near light. The installation location of the nozzles is thoroughly measured by a ruler for their accurate fit. Having determined the installation site, the hole is drilled in the bumper. It is better not to do it immediately, but to expand gradually under the size of the nozzle. Drilling recommended from the outside of the bumper. In this case, the paints will raise the minimum quantity. Then you need to fix the nozzles. Now from the tank to the nozzles you need to hold hoses. It is advisable to choose the shortest path, bypassing the heating surfaces.
• After connecting the hoses, the design connects to electricity, and control is outputting. The optimal place to install the pump control unit is considered an ignition unit and alarm column. The white wire is supplied to + dimensional lamp. The red wire is carried out through the fuse by + power supply. Red and black wire, which is located next to white is placed on + and - washer. The blue wire is stretched into the cabin, to set the activation button. Blue wire is connected to + shutdown of dimensions. It can be connected to the illumination of the cigarette lighter.

Installation of headlight washer with your own hands: Nuances of the procedure

Installation of the washer is a simple procedure, for car enthusiasts, weighing the car. But familiarization with some nuances before installing, will not be superfluous.

• Set. Some kits include a nozzle overlay. It will help to do without drilling the bumper, since the tubes and nozzles are installed on this element.
• Installing a tank. If the tank is subject to installation separately, not in the tank for cleaning the glasses, then the relay is needed.
• Place for tank. Before installing, you need to determine the place under the new tank. It is desirable to install away from the heating knots of the car. Car enthusiasts choose a place on the left side member above the gearbox.
• Place for injectors. Ideally, nozzles are installed opposite the optical center of the headlight. This reference is calculated by drawing a diffuser. The center is indicated by the circle. If xenon is installed in the near light, the installation site is shifted to the left.
• Bumper. Before starting drilling, you need to examine inner space opposite the amplifier. There you can detect regular holes that are placed in front of the top platform of the spars.
• Fastening. Tubes should be put on the fittings and delay the tees.

Outcome

Plans washer is useful devicewhich will travel by car more comfortable and safe. It is useful to use them in rainy weather or off-road. If the washer is not installed on your car, you can always make and install it yourself.

The modern world of automotive technologies is developing in very early rates. It would seem that a little more century passed, as the first car arose, and what results were achieved. In addition to high technical characteristics and car parameters, from the beautiful external view and other transport charms, manufacturers do not forget about comfort, as well as movement safety vehicle.

Weather conditions are a significant basis in order to car manufacturers They turned their gaze to the external behavior of the vehicle with different weather. That is why in recent decades it was found very interesting, and at the same time a useful device like a glass washer. In general, the glass washer, and in the spaciousness of glass, or wash - this is a liquid that is intended to remove dirt from the windshield, and in many cars already from the rear and side glasses. Nevertheless, in this case, it will not be about liquid, but about a phenomenal and original device.

Yes, of course, it's great that now at rains, with slush and others not the best weather conditions, the motorist may not worry about his ferris and contemplation on the road, because the windows makers wash off any dirt from all possible glasses. And what if the street is dirt, night, "beautiful" domestic roads and headlights are completely shrouded in "Mrak"? The answer is simple: you need windows for headlights. This device is widely popular in recent times, as it is quite useful and relatively inexpensive pleasure for the car owner. Thus, the solution of the glass driver breaks through and sprinkles through specially made nozzles, while the headlights are cleaned by the brushes of wipers. So, strictly speaking, any night barriers are not terrible.

1. What could be the headlight washer?

There are two types of headlight washer, the main difference of which is in the principle of cleansing the diffuser. Jet The headlight washer does this with a good water jet, which is sent under huge pressure and knocks all possible dirt. Other intervention in the process of cleaning of this type is not provided. This species The washer is the most common in the modern world, as it directly depends on the modern headlights, which are universally plastic. No friction plastic tolerates, because of what is not suitable for its cleaning traditional and conservative brushes.

As already been determined, the second type of washer will be brush. With this type, everything is extremely clear, since the process in this case is similar to the glass laundering process: the lazy jet is the supply of water to the diffuser, and the brushes, the controlling link of which is the headlight washer motor, produce direct friction and rubbing surfaces. However, modern cars Rarely provide this kind of rarity. This is due to the fact that only glass headlights can fully withstand this kind of cleaning, and modern car lights Den this material in mass production. That is why even for sale for installation with your own hands, such a kit will be very hard to find.

2. The lid and the headlight washer nozzle, as well as other elements of the device.

The washer is not a complex device and consists of such elements: Control systems, water tank, nozzles and hose systems, pump. The beginning is made from the tank, where, in obligatory manner, there must always be a certain sufficient amount of fluid for laundering. Often, such liquid is water. But in winter and cold times, it should be mixed with alcohol. It will be easier to purchase and pour ordinary non-freeze. Very often for cleaning the car headlights and glass use one tank. This directly depends on fluid flow. So, such a tank can be like 4 liter and 2 liter. Often, an increased volume is used if there are several nozzles for cleaning each individual element.

Required pressure in the system provides a pump. It is necessary so that the fluid in due mode is sprayed throughout the polluted surface. This element obeys the entire electrical circuit of the car, and also responds directly to the control system commands. Delivery of fluid to the elements of the sprayer deliver the installed hoses. They are made different lengths, depending on the location of the tank in the car. The nozzle in the fleet of headlights is responsible for the effectiveness of the water set in the diffuser, as well as for rational spending.

This kind of nozzles can be two types. The most elementary in its design is the classic sprayer, which is constantly in sight. It is attached on the bumper, therefore, when installing such an item, it is necessary to count on a certain change in the design of the car. Telescopic variety is hidden, in the absence of place of use. The headlamp nozzle lid is very carefully hides this attribute, as it opens only by a specific management system command.

Nevertheless, a casus may happen in the cold, when the plug objects and does not open at the request of the motorist. The cleanliness can be controlled with your own hands through a button. In addition, it is possible to determine the control of the intellectual control, which in various ways will determine the need for a scatterer in cleaning.

3. Installing headlight washer with your own hands.

First you need to purchase a set of washer. The main difference can be in the list of parts, depending on both the principle of operation of the entire acquired device and the preferences of the car owner in the scenery and the form of the bumper form of its vehicle. As an example, in some sets there may be a headlight washer nozzle. It can save the bumper from drilling, as all communications will be installed directly on it. In addition, you can find the pumps, tank, hoses and all the necessary relays.

When all structural elements assembled, you can start working. Installation of the headlight washer for any constructive complex must be started with the adoption of certain solutions. First, you should open the hood and examine the tank in order to attach an additional hose to it. For domestic cars This will not be certain problems that you can't tell about foreign cars. Consequently, you need to find a place where a new tank will be located. It is best to arrange it away from the details that are prone to heating. After that, it is necessary to find a place where the nozzles will be located. Ideally, it would be necessary to put them opposite the optical center of the headlight, the calculation of which can be made according to the drawing on the diffuser. The center will be marked.

After that, directly opposite the center need to drill a bumper by making a small hole, start its expansion under a certain nozzle. It is more rational than soon to resuscitate extra millimeters. The drill must be written outside the bumper, as it will rise significantly less paint. Nozzles need to be consolidated. If they do not fit the flower of the bumper, then it will take care of this small nuance in advance. Each kit is an individual. That is why instructions will come to help the car enthusiast, which is attached to the purchase. Now the best time comes to carry out all the necessary hose by choosing the shortest path. But, again, the surfaces that are heated should be watched.

After all the time done it is time for the electrician. Already familiar pump should be connected to electrical system The car and output it to a separate button to control, or on the overall glass washer. Better option For this, than these two, not yet found. The button may require certain trouble when you enlighten and connect. However, the connection means an increased consumption of cleansing fluid, as the headlights will wash all the time when the glass is turned on. After the motorist accepted the decision and connected the electrician, we can assume that the installation is fully completed.
