Abstract
A computer includes a processor and a memory storing processor-executable instructions. The processor is programmed to receive data indicating a contaminant on a sensor window of a vehicle; determine a combination of an air pressure setting of an air source and a liquid pressure setting of a liquid source to remove the contaminant from the sensor window; and set the air source to the air pressure setting and the liquid source to the liquid pressure setting.

A computer comprising a processor and a memory storing processor-executable instructions, the processor programmed to:
- receive data indicating a contaminant on a sensor window of a vehicle;
- determine a combination of an air pressure setting of an air source and a liquid pressure setting of a liquid source to remove the contaminant from the sensor window;
- and
- set the air source to the air pressure setting and the liquid source to the liquid pressure setting.
