Instructions
Step 1
The auto plant in Togliatti did not make changes to the body layout, as well as change the electrical equipment, so that the car owners were left with the opportunity to install "wipers" on the headlights on their own, without making any changes to the wiring, and without making unnecessary holes in the car body.
Step 2
To this end, the radiator lining is initially removed, and then the wiper motors are inserted into the front panel, next to the headlights, which are fastened with a nut outside the body.
Step 3
Further, on the shafts of the electric motors, the headlight wiper blades with leashes are fixed, and the pipes for the water supply are pulled to the washer reservoir, equipped for attaching two pumps: one supplies water to the windshield wipers, the other washes the headlights.
Step 4
We find a free wiring block, designed to connect the second electric pump, which is located next to the washer reservoir, and connect the pump. In parallel with it, an electrovalve is connected, which locks the gravity of water to the headlights when the wiper is not working.
Step 5
After completing all the installation work related to the installation of the headlamp wiper, the radiator grille is installed in place.
