Anybody know if ????
there's a way to pull a fuse or something that'll disable the damn headlight washers !!

i mean sometimes i just wanna spritz on the windsheild and not get the whole front of the truck dirty !!

my last 4.6 had them disabled but the dealer did it and charged me i was wondering if i could just pull a fuse or someshit ?

NEIL....

Weasel will become famous soon enough
Just unplug the washer motor for the headlight washers... it's the bigger diameter one with the bigger sized output hose.

To the OP:
Are you certain you aren't hitting the "S" super wash button on the
stalk, as opposed to pulling the stalk back gently for a quick spritz?

That S/super wash does the big spray including the headlight covers.
The regular windshield spritz does just that, and every several times
it will also do the headlight covers.
