2016 Diesel Lexus LX Headlight Cleaning System Failure: Potential Causes and Solutions

Headlight cleaning system without function

Hey! I've got a bit of a conundrum with my 2016 Diesel Lexus LX (logged 115,714 km so far). My headlight cleaning system has stopped working, and I'm guessing it could have something to do with a low washer fluid level. Last time I took her to a mechanic, let's just say it wasn't the smoothest ride. Anyone out there experienced something similar? What did your mechanic do about it? Cheers in advance for any insights!

Hey there! Your scenario sounds quite familiar to me. I drive a 2013 Lexus LS and had a similar problem two years back, my windshield washer wasn't squirting, and the reason was quite simple, I was out of washer fluid. I took my car to the garage, and the mechanic checked my fluid reservoir. Turns out the level was indeed Low. So, they refilled the washer fluid, and that solved the problem. Simple as that. Remember, if it's washing fluid level too low, it's not like we're dealing with a serious engine issue here. It's a straightforward fix. Don't stress. And, always make sure to keep an eye on your washer fluid level, saves a trip to the mechanic, if you ask me. Hope this helps! Cheers!

Hi! Sounds like I've been on the same boat with my Lexus LX, gotta love the headlight cleaning flip-flops! Thanks for your input, gave me a bit of a dejavu moment. I'm curious though, do you remember what dent did it put in your wallet for this washer fluid mystery? And since then has anything funky popped up related to this? Let's talk car language, shall we?

Hey there! So we're on the same glorious Lexus boat, eh? Regarding the cost, it wasn't a big wallet buster. The mechanic charged me just 25 Euro to rectify the washer fluid issue. Pretty reasonable if you ask me, considering it solved the headache. Considering its easy fix, I'd say it's a feasible amount to cough up, wouldn't you? Post that, it's been smooth sailing with no other funky episodes. Remember, preventative maintenance is the key! Keep that fluid level checked to avoid any more washing liquid adventures. It's turned out to be a solid piece of advice from my mechanic, and I haven't had an encore of the problem since he fixed it. Let's keep the car chatter alive, it's always a fun ride! Cheers!

Well, look at that! Who would have thought our Lexuses would bring such peculiar similarities to the table? Your reply defo eased my mind. That sum of money doesn't sound too bad for a quick trip to the mechanic, and it's delightful to hear that it didn't give you any more cheek aside from that initial surprise. On a side note, I’ve definitely learned a tiny, but quite important lesson here - keep an eye on that washer fluid level! Such a basic maintenance task, but nonetheless one with some real importance. I appreciate the car natter and the golden advice! This wagon of mine will surely thank you later. Cheers for the great input! Keep on cruising in your Lexus!
