VARIABLE HEADLIGHT WASHER SPRAY APPARATUS AND METHOD DEPENDENT ON OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE

摘要

A temperature-dependent spray assembly for a headlight and associated method of spray washing a headlight are provided. The spray assembly includes a nozzle assembly having an opening directed toward a headlight lens surface. A sensor monitors an outdoor temperature. A controller is in operative communication with the sensor and the nozzle assembly, and the controller provides a signal indicative of one of (i) a temperature at or above a predetermined temperature and (ii) a temperature below the predetermined temperature whereby the nozzle assembly is operated in a first manner at or above the predetermined temperature and in a different, second manner below the predetermined temperature.
