How to Install New Wiper Blades on a Vehicle?

It's important to keep the wiper blades on a vehicle in good condition. Wiper blades can remove debris, improve visibility, and aid with snow removal during the winter. An older set of wiper blades can cause several problems: old wiper blades can leave streak marks, scratch glass, and can damage a wiper blade motor. The following guide provides simple tips to install a new set of wiper blades.Measure the existing wiper blades installed on a vehicle. It's important to measure only the rubber part of a wiper blade. Wiper blade measurements are based on the length of the blade that comes in contact with the vehicle's glass. Never install a wiper blade that is too large for a vehicle. This can put excessive strain on a wiper blade's motor.Old wiper blades are simple to remove. Lift the old wiper blades directly away from the windscreen. They should pivot on a 90 degree angle from the base of the blade. The back side of the wiper blade will have a small hinge attached by a spring. Lifting this hinge will allow the old wiper blade to be removed. Most blades will slide out of a slot after the hinge is removed.A new wiper blade should be installed the same way the old blade was removed. Slide the new wiper blade into the empty wiper blade slot. Attach the hinge assembly to the mirror using the spring latch. This will help ensure that the wiper blade can't move. Push the wiper blade back towards the vehicle, and test to make sure that it is securely in place. Never operate an improperly installed wiper blade -- this can result in wiper blade motor damage, windscreen scratches, and a damaged wiper blade assembly.Make sure to recycle old wiper blades when finished. Wiper blades are usually made from aluminum and rubber. Some auto repair shops will pay to recycle old wiper blades. This can be a great way to help the environment while saving money.
