How do I remove rear wiper arm from 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe?

Answer 1

I succeeded in removing the wiper arm from my 2004 Santa here's how.

1. Purchase a 4" 2 jaw light duty gear puller from Canadian Tire $6 and change.

2. Remove plastic cover of old wiper arm.

3. After removing nut use a center punch to mark center of wiper bolt.

4. Drill a very small starter hole from center Punch mark on wiper bolt.

This is stop gear pullers center bolt from sliding off of wiper bolt.

5. Attach gear puller to bottom of old wiper arm and start screwing the gear

pullers center bolt on the wiper arm bolt.

My wiper arm was so rusted on I had to attach a slider clamp to the puller jaws

to hold them together so they would not slip off of the wiper arm while I was

turning the pullers center bolt.

I hope this method helps out someone as desperate as I was to remove my

wiper arm. Cheers
