Hello,
"I wasn't quite sure what to make of the VCDS yesterday. I wanted to change the activation time of the SRA (windshield washer) so that it, for example, only starts cleaning the windshield after 8 seconds. However, it seems that's not possible, or I can't understand the text in VCDS, which talks about the 'activation time.' Is this the time until the SRA turns on, or the time that the SRA remains active?"
Because halving that time would, in theory, save water. It's ridiculous, but the Leon, despite having an SRA (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system, has a tiny tank.
Does anyone know how the wiper control logic works on the Leon 1P? Is it the older system where it sprays washer fluid after pulling the lever for more than 3 seconds while the low beam is on, or the newer system where it only sprays fluid every so often?

Hello,
Please post the Autoscan results so we know which control units are involved.
Best regards, Rainer.

Okay, I will translate the text from German to English. Please provide only the translation, no explanations.
Regarding the excerpt from the vehicle network control unit (STG), should I only provide that excerpt, or should I post everything?

In this case, the vehicle's body control module (BCM) should be sufficient.
