Yeah, I know the subject is a little clikc-bait-y, but it is true. Prior to getting the car I watched every youtube video. Then with the car I have driven over 1000 miles with literally no where to go. And I thought I knew every control, but today I discovered something new
The button on the windhsield wiper stalk has TWO setting.
A FULL press does what I have always known - activates the wipers and sprays wiper flued
The part I did NOT know.... you can push the button partially - push in, but not all the way. There is detent on the "Soft press" and... you get wipers but NO washer fluid.
OK, maybe not the most exciting functionality, but again, the exciting part is discovering this after having no idea it existed.
I also checked the owners manual, and it does not really describe this. It says:
Fully press and hold the button on the end of
the left-hand steering column lever to spray
washer fluid onto the windshield. While
spraying the windshield, the wipers turn on.
So if you are REALLY paying attention you might pick up on "Fully press" and deduce there is a non-fully press?
