The mechanisms that hold the wiper blades in place can often be cumbersome, but knowing how to proceed can resolve the issue in just a few minutes. Here’s how to do it. Lift the wiper arm and position the blade at a right angle to the arm. Press the lever to release it and remove the blade by pulling it downwards first, then detach it. Obtain the appropriate replacement and refit everything in reverse order.

Ensure proper fastening to avoid any instability while driving and during use in rain.
