Replacing Wiper Blades on Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Windshield wipers

Lift the wiper arm (arm and blade) away from the windscreen until it reaches its limit. As shown in the video, lift the hook that secures the blade to the arm, slightly bend the blade, and remove it from the umbrella-style attachment of the arm. Similarly, insert the new blade by locking it into the arm's attachment, then close the plastic hook. The operation is the same for both front wipers and also for the rear, which does not even have a closing hook. Remember not to rest the arm on the windscreen while the blade is missing.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
