Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these steps carefully

1

Service position (if needed)

Turn the ignition off. On many vehicles, briefly switch ignition on/off and pull the wiper stalk to park the arms in a raised service position. Otherwise carefully lift each arm by hand.

2

Lift the wiper arm

Lift the wiper arm off the glass until it stays up. Support it — never let a bare arm snap back onto the windshield or you can crack the glass.

3

Release the old blade

Locate the lock tab where the blade meets the arm (hook, pin, or bayonet). Press the tab and slide/unhook the old blade off the arm.

4

Match the new blade

Confirm the new blade length and connector type match the old one. Attach any adapter included with the blade kit for your arm style.

5

Install until it clicks

Slide or clip the new blade onto the arm until you hear/feel a solid click. Tug gently to verify it is locked before lowering.

6

Lower and repeat

Gently lower the arm onto the glass. Repeat for the other side (and rear wiper if equipped). Mist the windshield and test wipe on low before driving.

All Done!

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

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • • Forgetting to replace both wiper blades simultaneously, leading to uneven wiping performance.
  • • Installing the wrong size wiper blades, resulting in inadequate coverage.
  • • Not properly securing the wiper blade, causing it to detach during operation.
