then just clean the windshield... as long as you car isn't in drive your windshield isn't going to magically turn on.

90% sure on this: if you have the "beta: automatic windshield wipers" enabled, you need to turn the wipers to off on the stalk to get service mode to work.

Turn off the wipers at the knob control then set to service

The windshield service mode is not possible to activate unless you rotate the wiper control on the left stalk all the way off.
in fact it’s an easy way to deactivate it after it is in service mode just rotate it to the auto position or any other position and it will return home.
