No solenoid. Just factory wiper fluid pump.

Think I'm going to run a check valve as suggested by another member. It should stop the slow drip that happens after you activate it the first time. Think it's caused by the nozzles being lower than the fluid reservoir.

I did notice that the drip stopped after I used up some of the fluid during testing. Think the level dropped in the tank which lowered the pressure on the nozzles.

Worse case it takes 5 seconds to hook back up the OEM line to stop the drip when you get off the track.
