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.

(13mm socket) (DRAW DIAGRAMS!!!) - remove pulley with impact driver (13mm wrench)
Remove the water pump by undoing all bolts - keep track of which bolt went where (DRAW DIAGRAMS!!! Trace the new pump and poke holes where the screws go.) - clean all bolts with wire wheel if needed - remove the water inlet feed on the old pump
Remove pump when all bolts are out - clean entire gasket surface - use razor blade - dry surfaces
Prepare the new water pump and gasket: - apply gasket goop to the engine side of the water pump gasket - apply goop to the pump side surface of the water pump ITSELF!
Installing new water pump: - make sure engine block surface side is clean - stick the gasket to the surface lining up holes - put the pump on, have bolt in hand to thread in and hold it - torque all bolts down, I do it by feel - reinstall the inlet hose to the new pump
NOTE!
On all bolts going into the pump use rtv on the smooth surface of the bolt and use blue loctite on the threads!!!

Then�.
- Reinstall the pulley on the pump - reinstall the belts in correct order (small one first towards the engine) - fat one towards the front., reinstall plastic pulley to keep it all together

Flush your cooling system at this point in time with a garden hose and sprayer.

Where are the wiper relays in a 1997 GMC Safari?
The wiper relays in my 1995 Safari were inside the wiper motor housing. They kept going out because water would get into the housing. If you unscrew the front of the cover, you will see the circuits and contacts. YOu can clean the contacts, but the best bet is just to replace the entire thing.
on my 98 safari i thought water was getting into my wiper motor, since the only time they acted up is when it was raining,and they would work - when they felt like it - or when i would flex the wiring connector which led into the wiper motor - called my dealer they said it would be the circuit board, I removed the screws from the cover of the wiper motor which is the circuit board and with the wiring harness still plugged into it i pulled it towards me to reveal the components on the other side, the relay is the first the you see when you follow the wiring into the circuit board, you will see 4 to 5 solder points connecting the relay to the circuit board, these solder joints worked loose, to repair simply resolder adding additional solder.
The boards are releativley cheap at the auto stores, but before spending the money try unplugging and replugging the connectors to the boards.

How do you replace windshield wipers on 2001 alero?
Easiest way: Get the entire replacement arm (not just the blade). Flip up the wiper and you should find a little tab on the under side where it's attached to the metal part of the arm. Push the tab down and everything should slide up. You will the rod with a hook at the end. The new wipers should slide into place with the hook over the top of the small plastic piece that is curved on one side and has a tab on the other. You'll hear a click when it snaps into place. That's basically it.... Of the cars I've owned, one of the easiest to replace wipers. (There are usually picture instructions in the replacement wipers if you get stuck, too.)
