FRONT WIPER ARMS
STANDARD PROCEDURE - FRONT WIPER ARM
ALIGNMENT
(1) Verify wiper blade element condition and wiper
arm spring tension. Run wipers in low speed mode
while applying water to the windshield. Observe the
wiper blade that is chattering or skipping across the
windshield. If the wiper element is not rolling over
when the wiper direction reverses, align the wiper
arm. The extension bar portion of the wiper arm
must be twisted in the proper direction to allow the
wiper element to roll over when the direction
reverses.
(2) Place two small adjustable wrenches placed 50
mm (2 in.) apart on the wiper arm extension rod.
(3) Twist the extension rod slightly in the opposite
direction that the element is laying on the wind-
shield while holding the wrench closest to the pivot
stationary.

WIPER BLADES
REMOVAL
(1) Lift the wiper arm away from the glass.
(2) Disengage the release tab holding the wiper
blade to the wiper arm and remove the wiper blade
from the wiper arm (Fig. 6) and (Fig. 7).
CLEANING
Wiper blades exposed to the weather for a long
period of time tend to lose their wiping effectiveness.
Periodic cleaning of the wiper blade is recommended
to remove the accumulation of salt and road grime.
The wiper blades, arms and windshield should be
cleaned with a sponge or cloth and a mild detergent
or nonabrasive cleaner. If the wiper blades continue
to streak or smear, they should be replaced. Thewiper blade should run smoothly across the wind-
shield in both directions. The wiper blade should
slightly roll over center when the blade reverses
direction. A wiper blade insert that has lost flexibility
or a wiper arm that has lost spring tension, will
cause the blade to skip or chatter across the wind-
shield. If the wiper blades are new and the wiper
arm spring tension is OK and a chattering sound is
emitted from the wiper(s), the wiper blade is not roll-
ing over center. If this condition exists, (refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/WIPERS/WASHERS/WIPER ARMS -
ADJUSTMENTS).
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the blade onto the arm.
(2) Engage the blade to the retainer by pulling up
on the blade until the tabs snap into position (Fig. 6).
