How To Change Windscreen Wiper Blades In 6 Steps
Taking care of your car will help to retain as much value as possible, so learning a few skills to keep your vehicle in a good condition will benefit you when you come to find out how much your car is worth.
First, turn off the car engine and remove the key from the ignition to eliminate the possibility of the wiper arm moving once the blade is removed.
Next, lift the windscreen wiper arm away from the glass, locking them in an upright position if your car allows them to fully extend.
Locate and pop open the locking tab, or push down on the locking button.
Slide out the windscreen wiper and hold the wiper arm in place, if it were to spring back onto your windscreen without the wiper blade attached it could crack the glass.
Take your new windscreen wiper and slide it into place, if your wipers feature a locking button you should see it click into place, wipers with a locking tab may need manually clipping back into place.
Finally, gently lower the wiper back onto the windshield.
