In my experience, they only spray when the lights are on and they are activated by the windscreen wash/wiper stalk.

Not part of mot so one less worry. One of mine is missing and passed mot. As said I’m sure they spray when headlights are on and you operate the windscreen washer.

I had a leak from driverside jet, tried to pull pipe off and it fell apart so be careful. They’re held in by a metal horseshoe type circlip from below. Might need to remove bumper if you want to remove the jet.
