Headlight washers?

How do I just turn them on so I can make sure they work?

You might have to wait an additional second or two from when the winshield ones kick on. Good luck trying to see them actually work

Make sure to stand in front of the car if you have someone else activate them. If you stand to the side, you will get wet!

Do it while driving and you can more easily see the splash come from the headlights.
