What can fail
A headlamp wiper arm forced into a groove below the headlamp can jam. When windshield washers operate with headlamps on, the washer pump runs continuously and empties. The pump can then overheat, seize, or cause fire.
What the fix does
Replace washer pump with one that has an internal thermal cut-out to stop the pump after fluid runs out.
