taking care not to strain the wiring (see
illustration).
24The bulbs are a bayonet fit in the bulbholder
(see illustration). Note that the brake/tail lamp
bulb has offset bayonet pins so that it can only
be fitted in one position; ensure that the correct
type of replacement is obtained.

Removal
26Using a thin-bladed screwdriver, carefully
prise the lamp surround from the bumper.
27Pull the lamp from the bumper, taking
care not to strain the wiring, and unclip the
lens (see illustration).
28The bulb is a bayonet fit in the lamp (see
illustration).
Refitting
29Refitting is a reversal of removal.
35Wiper blades -renewal
1
Removal
1The wiper blades should be renewed when
they no longer clean the glass effectively.
2Lift the wiper arm away from the glass. On
some models it may be more convenient to do
this with the bonnet open.
3With the blade at 90°to the arm, depress
the spring clip and slide the blade from the
hook (see illustration).
4If necessary, extract the two metal inserts
and unhook the wiper rubber.
Refitting
5Refitting is a reversal of removal, but where
applicable, make sure that the cut-outs in the
metal inserts securing the rubber to the blade
face each other.
36Wiper arms - removal and
refitting
2
Windscreen and rear window
wipers
Removal
1The wiper motor should be in its parked
position before removing the wiper arm. Mark
the position of the blade on the glass with
adhesive tape as a guide to refitting.
2Lift the hinged covers, and remove the nuts
and washers securing the arms to the
spindles.
3Prise the arms from the spindles, using a
screwdriver if necessary. Take care not to
damage the paintwork.
Refitting
4Refitting is a reversal of removal. Note that
the passenger side wiper arm is longer than
that fitted to the driver’s side. Ensure that the
arms are fitted to their correct locations, as
incorrect installation can cause the blades to
foul one another when being used (see
illustration).
Headlamp wipers
5The procedure is as described in
paragraphs 1 to 4, but the washer hose must
be disconnected from the stub on the body
panel.

3To refit, reconnect the washer hose to the
nozzle, and push the nozzle into its locating
hole.
4The nozzles can be adjusted by inserting a
pin into the jet, and swivelling it to the
required position.
1991-on models
5The nozzles on all later models are fitted
with twin jets.
6On some later models, the nozzles are
heated; the circuit is fed through fuse 29 and
is live whenever the ignition is switched on.
Current is regulated by a Positive
Temperature Coefficient (PTC) resistor that
takes outside temperature into account.

Removal
1Disconnect the battery negative lead.
2Remove the wiper arms, as described in
Section 36.
3Remove the windscreen cowl panel, as
described in Chapter 11.
4Disconnect the wiring plug from the motor
(see illustration). 5Unscrew the three bolts securing the
motor/linkage assembly to the body, then
withdraw the assembly (see illustrations).
6If desired, the motor can be removed from
the linkage by unscrewing the three securing
bolts. Do not attempt to dismantle the linkage.
