How do you replace a wiper arm?
on My 1984 LeSabre, I found that there is a tab near where the wiper arm mounts to the pivot. If you bent the wiper arm back and pull the tab out with a pliers your can then remove the wiper arm. After you put the new one one you have push the tab back in. It has to go far enough in for the spring to be able to pull the wiper against the window.

Why don't the windshield wipers in a 1985 Mercury Grand Marquis turn off?
Windshield wiper motors have an internal switch that allows a wiper motor to stay running long enough to keep the wipers moving until they reach the "park" position. Once the wiper gets to the park position, the wiper motor is shut off. The internal switch often fails and either the motor will shut off immediately, wherever it is or it will keep running. It sure seems that you need a new wiper motor.

you have to remove the passenger side front wheel and the fender liner to expose the bottom of the washer fluid reservoir. once done the pump is the little black cylinder attached to the bottom. remove the plug and the hose from the pump( if the fluid is full...its going to be messy). removing the pump is simply a matter of prying the old one out(being careful not to damage the reservoir) replacing the included gasket and snapping the new one in. replace the plug and hose and see if it works!

How do you remove the entire wiper arm on a 2004 blazer?
I'm not sure about your particular vehicle here. But if you don't see any nuts at the base of the wiper arm, you'll probably want to use a special tool. Usually these tools can be found at any auto parts store if you tell them what kind of vehicle you drive. They're generally not that pricey. It shouldn't be any different than any other. At the base of the wiper arm is a cap that lifts up. Under the cap is a nut. Propbably takes a half inch wrench. Unscrew the nut and pull off the wiper arm.

How do you change wiper blades in 2006 Mercedes Benz ML350?
Its easy but you have to make sure you have the correct replacement wiper blades. The 2006 Mercedes-Benz ML350 has the newer style and more rare "pinch tab" wiper arms. See sources and related links below for installation videos. Also, purchase the replacement blades first and there will be additional instructions/illustrations on the replacement packages - note that not all wipers will fit on pinch tab arms so be sure to reference the make, model and year of your vehicle for the brand wipers you choose to purchase. Pinch-tab compatible wipers are a little bit trickier to find. Locate and press the tabs where the wiper blade meets the wiper arm then tip or rotate the wiper down out of the tab attachment, then rotate slightly so you can remove the little hook at the end out of the hole. The video below shows this in the reverse order but you'll get it.

How do you change rear window wiper blade on 2007 Pontiac Vibe?
See sources and related links below for wiper blade installation videos and information on the special rear wiper blade (its hard to find at most stores).
1. Buy the correct-fit replacements. The 2007 Pontiac Vibe takes a special 11" rear wiper blade for the special rear arm. You may have to go to your dealer or you may want to look into "Trico Exact Fit Rear Integral Blades" that fit these new special arms - you can find them online. (there may be others available too)
The good news is - specialized rear arms do not automatically mean the wiper blade is difficult to change - it just means you need to get the right blade for easy (and successful) installation.
Correct replacement windshield wiper blades are not only correct length, but also correct attachment. Never just buy by length only. Always lookup your vehicle in an application guide at the store or now-a-days you can 'lookup wiper size' online. The key to an easy install is correct size/correct part numbers.
2. The new replacement wiper will have step-by-step, illustrated instructions.
3. Most wiper replacements snap off and on, do not require tools and take approximately 2-15 minutes.
4. Consider upgrading your front wipers to the newer-style, frameless beam blades. They have many engineering and performance improvements.

Be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.
What if the Wipers wont turn off after turned on in a 1987 brougham?
Guess you'll have to buy articulating eyeballs. I had this problem in a Buick of about same age. In the Buick, a connector swipes a metal surface within the motor, and at the end of each round "swipe" there is a small connector that turns the "return" circuit on if the wiper shitch has been turned off. In my Buick, the years of use had worn this piece off and the sliding connector couldn't "find" it. The fix is not easy; to take the motor apart and to use a soldering iron to build a new piece of connection, small enough so it doesn't cause other problems. This is a "farmer's fix"; these things are not MADE repairable... so it is a safer bet to buy a new motor (I don't know if this connector system can be bought separately).

How many inches are wiper blades 2000 Kia Sportage?
The 2000 Kia Sportage takes 20" replacement windshield wiper blades on both sides front and a 16" rear wiper blade.
However, when buying windshield wiper blades be sure to always use the application guide book at the store, or now-a-days you can Google 'lookup wiper size'. You want to look this up because correct wiper fit is more than correct length, it's also proper attachment. Not all attachments fit all arms. Using the application guide or looking up wiper size online will avoid headaches of buying the right lengths with the wrong attachments.
Additionally, the installation process is simple. The replacement wiper blades will come with step-by-step, illustrated instructions and once you have the instructions and the wiper blades/arms in your hands and in front of you, it will all make better sense and will an easy maintenance task. Very simple and takes 5-15 minutes usually not requiring any tools.
If in your budget, upgrade to the newer-style frameless "beam blades" which perform better than conventional framed wipers. I use Trico NeoForm Beam Blades which are fantastic.
