Windshield Wiper Blade
Replacement

Windshield wiper blades should be inspected for wear
or cracking. See Scheduled Maintenance on page 7‑3
for more information on wiper blade inspection.

Replacement blades come in different types and are
removed in different ways. For the proper type and
length, see Maintenance Replacement Parts on
page 7‑10
.
Here's how to remove the wiper blade:

1. Pull the windshield wiper arm away from the

windshield.

2. While holding the wiper arm, lift the clip up from

the blade connecting point, and pull the blade
assembly down toward the windshield to remove it
from the wiper arm.

3. Install the new wiper blade on the wiper arm

and press down on the clip to snap it into
place.

Backglass Wiper Blade Replacement

If the protective cap is not removed before lifting

into the service position.

3. Rotate the wiper blade, and pull down on it to

remove it from the wiper arm.

4. Install the new wiper blade, then set the wiper

arm back into its original position and replace the
protective cap.
