How To Remove A Wiper Blade by autoremedy365: 11:04am On Jan 04, 2023
How to remove a wiper blade, wiper blades are an essential part of your vehicle’s safety equipment. If you’re driving on a rainy day with an old, worn-out blade or a bent wiper arm, you may not be able to see clearly out of your windshield. This can lead to an accident and even death. That’s why it’s so important that you replace your wiper blades at least once every year or two — maybe more often if conditions in your area are particularly harsh (such as excessive rain, snowfall or dust). Replacing the wiper blade yourself is a fairly straightforward process that will take just minutes with the right tools on hand:

Park your car, and turn the vehicle off.

Before you begin working on your car, make sure that the engine is cold. The best way to do this is by parking in a safe location and turning off your vehicle for at least an hour before starting. This will ensure that any moving parts are properly cooled down and ready for use.

Changing them is easy. All you need to do is remove the old blade and replace it with a new one. You should perform this task when the car is cool and after all windows are clear of frost, snow or ice. Here’s how:
Step 1: It’s important to work with a cool car.

In order to prevent warping the wiper blade, it’s important to work with a cool car. If you’ve used your car for an extended period of time and it’s too hot, let it cool down. On the other hand, if the car is too cold and you need to warm up the wiper blade in order to remove it, use a heat gun or hair dryer instead of letting it sit in direct sunlight.

Step 2: Turn on the windshield wipers to their fully vertical position.

To locate the attachment, turn on the windshield wipers to their fully vertical position. This will help you see where the blade is attached to the arm, and it can also illuminate this area if you have trouble seeing in low-light conditions.

Step 3: Lift the wiper blade up and away from the glass, and hold it in place.

Now that you have the wiper blade in place, it’s time to lift it up and away from the glass. Be careful not to let any part of the wiper rest on the windshield or dashboard; this may damage both.

You can use a towel or rag to protect your hand if lifting with one hand seems difficult.

Step 4: Pull back on the tab that holds the blade to its arm until you can slide it free.
