Wiper Blade Replacement

Windshield wiper blades should
be inspected for wear or cracking.
See Scheduled Maintenance on
page 11‑3
.

Replacement blades come in
different types and are removed in
different ways.

Front Wiper Blade
Replacement

1. Pull the windshield wiper arm

connector away from the
windshield.

2. Squeeze the grooved areas on

each side of the blade, and turn
the blade assembly away from
the arm connector.

3. Install the new blade onto the

arm connector and make sure
the grooved areas are fully set in
the locked position.

For the proper type and size, see
Maintenance Replacement Parts on
page 11‑9
.

Rear Wiper Blade Replacement

1. Lift the wiper blade assembly up

and out of the park rest position.

2. Pull the wiper blade assembly

away from the backglass. The
backglass wiper blade will not
lock in a vertical position, so
care should be used when
pulling it away from the vehicle.

3. Turn the wiper blade assembly,

and pull it off of the wiper arm.
Hold the wiper arm in position
and push the blade away from
the wiper arm.
