    Headlamp wipers do indeed work alongside the wash/wipe function. I think if yours don't, there may be some investigation required.

    Just check the usual wiring and fuses first.

    They only work when you use the jets to squirt fluid (ooeeerrr) onto windscreen they wont work by themselves or if your using windscreen wipers in the rain
