Heated Wipers (I Think)

[RG129]

After the Colorizer/Dashcam update, I noticed that the heated steering wheel button moved to the lower center of the HVAC settings, but then I also noticed another icon that I never noticed before. I'm assuming this is the heated wiper option? I just took delivery on 2/1 with VIN 167***. Nice to know I have this feature although in the Bay Area, it isn't a necessity.

Yep, not much of a change from the prior version though. New ones have 3 pucks and 3 wires, old ones have 2 of each. Any idea what the other 2 are for?

We have a new MYP and it had all the new goodies like Ryzen, AS tires but has no new heated wipers. I thought those were all together. Would have been nice for about three days of the year but oh well

Did you follow the link above? Take a picture from the passenger side frunk hinge and see this?

If so, you have it. You need a 2022 software revision to enable the feature so if you are still on 2021 they haven’t been software enabled yet.
