Difficulty
1
The windshield wiper and blade assembly should be inspected periodically for damage, loose components and cracked or worn blade elements
2
Road film can build up on the wiper blades and affect their efficiency, so they should be washed regularly with a mild detergent solution
3
The action of the wiping mechanism can loosen bolts, nuts and fasteners, so they should be checked and tightened, as necessary, at the same time the wiper blades are checked
4
If the wiper blade elements are cracked, worn or warped, or no longer clean adequately, they should be replaced with new ones
5
Lift the arm assembly away from the glass, pivot the wiper blade until it reaches its stop, then slide the blade off the arm
