To maintain effectiveness and prolong element life, the windshield and wiper blades should be kept clean by washing with a glass cleaner and wiping the rubber blades.

Insert blade over pin at top of arm and press until spring retainer engages groove in pin.

Raising the hood on most later models will facilitate easier wiper arm removal.

The standard equipment of a two-speed wiper motor includes the gear train and self-parking mechanism.

First, remove the attaching screws and pull out the knob. Then, disconnect the wiring and remove the switch.

If a coil spring blade retainer is present, you should insert a screwdriver on top of the spring and push downwards to remove the blade.

In the spring-type retainer clip method, a small pair of pliers can be used to squeeze the retainer clip together.

The windshield wiper and blade assembly should be inspected periodically for damage, loose components and cracked or worn wiper blade elements. Road film can build up on the wiper blades and affect their efficiency, so they should be washed regularly with a mild detergent solution. The action of the wiping mechanism can loosen the bolts, nuts and fasteners, so they should be checked and tightened, as necessary, at the same time the wiper blades are checked. If the wiper blade elements are cracked, worn or warped, they should be replaced with new ones. Lift the arm assembly away from the glass for clearance and remove the wiper blade. Three methods are used to retain wiper blades to wiper arms. The first type blade uses an internal spring. To remove it, press down on the blade, release the spring and remove the blade from the arm. The second type of blade uses a press-type release lever. When the release lever is depressed, the blade assembly can be slid off the wiper arm pin. The third type of blade uses an exterior spring. To remove the blade, insert a screwdriver under the spring and then push downward on the screwdriver to raise the spring. The blade can then be removed from the arm.
