Follow these steps carefully
The Ariya takes a 26-inch driver blade, an 18-inch passenger blade, and a 16-inch rear blade. (Outside the US, passenger blades may be 19 inches — measure yours.) Buy the rear blade made specifically for the Ariya — its connector differs from the fronts.
The Ariya's wipers park tucked under the hood line — move them to a service position first. Switch the vehicle on, turn the wipers on, then power off when the blades are halfway up the glass. Only then lift each arm away from the windshield.
This is one of my go-to tricks: Don't fight the wipers — if they park under the hood line and you force the arm up, you'll scratch the hood paint. Always get them into the service position before lifting any blade on this car.
Lift the driver-side arm off the glass. The front arms use a large J-hook (9x4) connector — press the tab or button where the blade meets the hook, then slide the old blade down and out. Set it aside to compare with the new blade.
Hold the new 26-inch blade next to the old one to confirm the length matches. Keep the edge guard on the new blade until it locks onto the arm, and verify the J-hook adapter on the new blade is the correct type before mounting it.
I always leave the edge guard on until the blade clicks into the arm — one careless bump with a bare rubber edge and the blade is ruined before it's even on the car.
Thread the arm's J-hook through the new blade's adapter and slide the blade up until it clicks. Tug it — it must not slide or wobble in the hook. Lower the arm gently back onto the windshield; never let it snap down on its own.
Repeat on the passenger side with the 18-inch blade. For the rear, study how the old 16-inch blade attaches first — its connector differs from the fronts. Press the release, slide it off, and fit the new blade until it locks.
Power the Ariya on, spray washer fluid, and run the front wipers at low and high speed — no streaks, skips, or chatter allowed. Then run the rear wiper with washer fluid and confirm the 16-inch blade clears the hatch glass evenly end to end.
Test your repair before closing everything up. If something doesn't work right, double-check your steps.
