Buick 22155381 Wiper Blade

The wiper blade and windshield should be inspected periodically for damage, loose components, cracked or worn blade elements. To maintain their efficiency, the wiper blades should be washed regularly using a mild detergent solution as road film can accumulate on them. During the same time when checking the wiper blades, check and also tighten bolts, nuts and fasteners as this can be loosened by the wiping action. The inserts are often called wiper blade elements in case of crackings, wearing out or warping; it is necessary to install them with new ones. Remove the wiper blade assembly from the wiper arm by inserting a small screwdriver into the opening and gently prying on the spring while pulling on the blade to release it. While removing its rubber element from the blade, you take off the blade itself from your car. Grasp pliers around this element's metal backing then slide this element out of a blade assembly. Check its length design etc against the old one. Slide in place new one automatically locking at proper location within few minutes of installation. Finally reinstalling of the entire blade assembly onto an arm and wetting windshield glass is done while testing for correct operation.
