The headlamp washers on my Discovery don't appear to be working, i haven't investigated why yet as its a bit cold but wondered if anyone had any ideas, are they on a separate fuse?

(I presume they activate when the headlamps are turned on and the windscreen washers are operated)

Yes chris, headlamps on, but they only work every third squirt of the windscreen washers.

I just fixed this on mine, there is a 20A fuse for the headlamp washers in the fuse box under the bonnet, it had blown and stopped them working.

Slight thread hijack. Is it simple to change a headlight washer? Just ordered a replacement for mine.

Thanks for that. Mine weren't working so I had a quick look at said fuse and it was blown. Replaced with a 15amp which was all I had and now offside is working and nearside is chucking water out somewhere behind the back of the front valenceeek Another little job to do methinks.

I was also reading on LRO forum that this fuse also controls the alarm flashing the indicator lights as well.
