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 11-12
.
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

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