I find the hl washer to be completely useless as I have these on my current and my last car. I wouldn't mind it if there's a button for you to opporate but washer activates randomly. I disabled mines.
It makes a mess on your headlights and it waste alot of the fluids...IMO

Look at part 3 in the above DIY guide. It's as simple as removing a fuse from the fuse box.

those things are annoying as hell, the spray once every 5 times you use the window washer. Makes a mess of a clean car and gets liquid all over the windshield after it has been cleaned. Pull the fuse and forget about the POS.
