Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these steps carefully

1

Get the right blades: 24" driver, 18" passenger

The 2017-2025 Mazda CX-5 takes a 24-inch blade on the driver side and a 18-inch blade on the passenger side. It also has a 14-inch rear wiper blade.

1

Lift the wiper arm

On the 2017-2025 Mazda CX-5, lift the wiper arm away from the glass until it locks upright. Support it so it cannot snap back. Informational DIY — EZ Car Fix is not a shop.

2

Release the old blade

Locate the release tab or clip on the blade. Press it and slide the blade off the hook, pin, or bayonet mount. Keep a hand on the arm.

3

Install the new blade

Match the adapter to your arm type. Slide the new blade on until it clicks firmly. Tug gently to confirm it is locked.

4

Lower, repeat, and test

Gently lower the arm onto the glass. Repeat for the other side (and rear if equipped). Spray washer fluid and run the wipers to verify a clean, streak-free wipe.

All Done!

Test your repair before closing everything up. If something doesn't work right, double-check your steps.

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • • Buying the wrong length or clip adapter
  • • Letting the arm slam the windshield
  • • Installing the blade upside down
  • • Forgetting the rear wiper on SUVs/hatchbacks
