Heated Washer Fluid

[TinyTot2]

Thinking about ordering that replacement AlphaTherm unit to restore the heated washer fluid in my '07 Tahoe.

Those who have done it... do you like it and was it worth it?

Ooh. Interesting. Where can I fine more info on this? I'd like it for the upcoming winter.

Just google AlphaTherm. I had it in my Tahoe. Works just like the stock one they took out. I think it's around $200.

I wonder how well this would work here in Florida?

Yes as long as your truck Produces over 13v to turn in on. on the site they even advertise great for Road Grime and Tree sap.......Does help out on Caked on bird crap that has been baked in by the warmer weather .

Will I have to remind the service techs not to remove it every time I have the vehicle serviced?

I'm assuming better safe than sorry...

depends. Its a safety issue so they might as just do it.

You're real cute Bro..... But then again I live in NC and we only get one snow storm a year, so I am more like you than the others.

I would think after the vehicles VIN is tagged that it has been done the technician isn’t going to go hunting for it. I just had my Denali in to replace the steering rack and they didn’t mess with it.

I had it done on my 07 and it worked great. If the factory one has been disabled they won't mess with the alpha therm (won't be flagged as an open recall). The units are under $100 so it's well worth it.

Yes, you retain the stock button. This unit plugs into the stock harness just like the orginal, under the hood by the break booster. It even snaps right into the factory bracket.
