Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement
Windshield wiper blades should be inspected at least
twice a year for wear or cracking. See “Wiper Blade
Check” in the Maintenance Schedule booklet under
Part B “Owner Checks and Services” for
more information.
It’s a good idea to clean or replace the wiper blade
assembly on a regular basis or when worn. For proper
windshield wiper blade length and type, see “Normal
Maintenance Replacement Parts” in the Index
To replace the wiper blade assembly, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ACC and turn the wipers on.
Position the wipers on the windshield in the “mid”
wipe position. Then with the door open, turn the
ignition to OFF.
2. Tip the blade up almost to a “T” position and push
down on the tab to release the wiper blade assembly.
3. To install, align the wiper blade with the loop on
the wiper blade assembly, and push up to snap it
into place.
