Activate the rear wiper and open the upper tailgate while in mid-wipe. The wiper will stop, and you can replace the blade. When completed, close the tailgate and the wiper will return to the rest position. Be very cautious not to pull on the arm, it will damage the internal workings. www.tnrovers.com

How to Replace a Wiper Blade?
For the mechanically challenged, it can be a daunting task to change a wiper blade on a vehicle. One problem that makes it difficult is because there are a number of wiper systems and wiper blades. Check the manual for the vehicle and it might specify the size and type of blade needed for the particular model in question. If the manual does not state what type of blade is needed, most companies who sell wiper blades have either a book or information on their computer that will clarify what type of wiper blade fits the vehicle. Before attempting to work on the wiper mechanism, the first thing a person should do is to start the vehicle and wait until the blade is in the middle of the windshield and then quickly turn off the key. This will stop the wiper’s motion and it will be in a more accessible position for removal of the old wiper blade and replacing it with a new blade. A common sense approach would be to do a simple analytical evaluation as to how the old blade is attached before removing it and this will help when installing the new one. To remove the old blade, pull the windshield wiper arm away from the windshield toward the front of the vehicle, in order to provide plenty of room to work. While firmly holding the wiper arm, after locating the connection apparatus of the old blade, lift the clip up from the blade, or depress the release tab if applicable for that type of blade, then pull the blade assembly down toward the windshield to remove it from the wiper arm. Before opening the new blade package to install it, check and make sure that it will fit the wiper arm of the vehicle. Many blades are manufactured to universally fit a variety of wiper mechanisms and come with several adaptors. If adaptors are needed, attach them and find the connection point on the wiper mechanism, slide the new blade into the crevice, then snap or hook it firmly into place.

The ball joint link in the wiper linkage is either broken off or become disconnected. Look under the grid of the vent intake at the base of the outside of the windshield. usually there are a few plastic pins holding this into place.. Once removed you can see where the wiper motor is attached to the linkage . There is usually a long arm the runs across to the passenger wiper pinion ..check to see that the coupling is not broken or cracked. You will have to get a replacement from the dealer or junkyard. when installing or removing ..alway put the wipers in the parked position.

How do you change the rear wiper blade on a 2003 Toyota 4 runner?
Generic rear wiper blade replacementI don't have a 2003 Toyota 4Runner, but I'll bet that the rear wiper blade replacement is similar to my 2004 Pontiac Vibe (same as a Toyota Matrix) and many other SUVs and small station wagons with rear wipers. The technique is basically all the same.- Lift the wiper blade off the glass. It will generally snap into an upright-ish position.- Near the end of the blade farthest from the pivot, press the rubber blade up into the wiper (exaggerating the curve you get on the glass). This gets the tip of the rubber blade to poke down, out of the wiper.- The tip of the rubber blade should start to clear the end stop. Use your fingers to pull the blade out a bit past this stop.- At this point, you can either carefully draw the entire blade out (rubber and metal parts all together) or you can try to pull the two metal parts out one at a time then pull out the rubber (this is easier). Keep the metal parts and don't bend them! Just use your fingers--you shouldn't need tools for this.Reverse the process to install the new rubber blade.- Put the rubber part -almost- in. Leave the tip out over the end stop a bit.- Finesse one metal part in one side and slide it down the groove to the end of the rubber blade (the curve should follow the wiper curve). Make sure it fits in the right "slot" in the rubber blade.- Repeat with the other metal stiffener.- Once the two metal stiffeners are in place, push the end home.Here are some excellent instructions with photos for a Prius:http://john1701a.com/prius/documents/Prius_Maintenance_Wiper-Blades.pdfCan't find the rubber part you need?Take the old rubber blade and match the profile to a high-quality refill blade, remove the metal strips from the refill (if the stiffener is plastic the refill is not "high-quality"!) and trim one end to match the original part length. Don't be afraid to trim it a little long--that is easier to correct than too short. When installing the new blade, put the factory-finished end in first (the part you trimmed will have open slots and it is easy to slide in the metal pieces).OR, simply replace the entire wiper blade assembly which only takes seconds and only costs a little bit more than replacing the rubber refill inserts described above. See related links below for wiper blade sizes and installation videos.
