The benefits of this new style of system are: More efficient use of fluid The windshield washer fluid spray does not block the drivers vision when cleaning the windshield The windshield washer fluid sprays directly onto the windshield only. This prevents the washer fluid from being sprayed onto the vehicle behind you, or nearby pedestrians.

If the windshield washer pump is found to be functioning properly, educate the customer on the system benefits, as indicated above.
