Wiper Blade Replacement: Here's How to Do It

Model: Mazda 3 BK, MK 1 - Years 2003-2009
Part: Windshield wipers

Having clean and water-free windows is essential for road safety. For this reason, wiper blades come to our aid; however, like any component, they also need to be replaced. Fortunately, it is quite simple: using a small screwdriver, lift the tab where it says "Open" (this may not be present on every brand of wiper blade, but the tab is the same) and lift it slightly. Pull up the wiper blade and continue lifting the tab until you can remove the blade with a gentle push. To fit the new blade, ensure it is oriented correctly and apply moderate pressure. That's it, easy peasy.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
