Hey everyone, turns out I have a gap between the windshield and the plastic guard below the wiper arms. The piece is installed correctly with factory clips. I suspect the windshield is a cheap replacement and not correctly sized. Anyone else experienced this? Advice on repairing or replacing it? reddit.com/gallery/sfkat0

Mechanic Cracked my rear windshield while changing the wiper arm but says they're not liable in Ontario

I took my vehicle in to change the rear windshield wiper arm because I didn't have the right tools for it and they cracked my windshield and are trying to tell me they're not responsible for it. it cost 500 dollars to change the windshield but they never disclosed the risk of it breaking in the first place, they never claimed to not have any responsibility for them breaking anything and they never had me sign anything.

If I wanted to take this to small claims court, would I have a leg to stand on?

Does anybody have any idea where to get a driver side wiper arm blade? I can’t seem to find anything online and there aren’t any Suzukis in any scrap yards. I don’t want to sell this car because of a wiper arm blade.

Just the wiper arm, I have wiper blades. I just need the left wiper arm.

Looking for size of nut on rear wiper arm - 05 Ex

This is the nut that compresses the rear wiper arm onto the mount. My rear wiper arm broke recently and the replacement didn't come with a nut and I've lost the original.

Does anyone know the size and thread pitch? I'm hoping to replace this quickly at a hardware store in the morning as I'm traveling tomorrow.

Thanks!

Quick question, 91’ Chevy S10, installed windshield arms and wipers, appears the motor is actually moving the wipers down, how can I change the direction?

Here in Cali, hasn’t rained the majority of the year except now… But got the arms and blades just in time, heh, took an hour or so of doing, but I got a sure way of putting them back on now after doing it.

The arms are seemingly the right way, if they were the other the arm would be over on the left side sticking out.

When I turn on the wipers, the arms/blades go down as if it was fixed incorrectly, when I try to move them there’s no leeway to make a whole swipe motion across the windshield.

Success with rear wiper arm removal!

My new to me 2007 has the typical issue where the rear wiper only makes contact with about half the window. Having read around a bit, it seems lots of people complain about this, and it is an easy fix - if you can get the wiper arm off. I just went out, backed off the nut a few turns, gave the nut/shaft a few sharp, gentle whacks with a hammer, and it popped right off.

Video of the process from someone else.....

Windshield wipers not moving when I put the arms on the posts. 2000 Chevy Astro Van.

I replaced my windshield wiper transmission and everything seems to be working until I have the wiper arms installed. The arms just stay put. I can't even hear the sound of the motor when they are on. Here is a video of the transmission without the arms on.

XJ Wiper Arm Interchangeability

I’ve seen lists on various forums that lay out interchangeable parts for XJs (e.g. you can take this axle from this vehicle and make it work, etc.). However, I have not ran across anything that lists wiper arm interchangeability. Does anyone have any insight on this? For example, would the wiper arms from a ZJ or WJ work? Or those from another make/model altogether? I have a RHD XJ and haven’t been able to find any replacement arms anywhere, nor can I find any alternatives. I’m hesitant to alter my existing stick arms, because they’re all I have. Lol. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. TIA!!

LPT: When replacing your windshield wiper blades, place a folded cloth or similar on the glass, under the spring-loaded wiper arm. That way, if the arm escapes your grasp and snaps down, it won't shatter your windshield

Please learn from my recent moment of clumsiness, which ended up costing me a full $1000 insurance deductible (costs will vary, but some windshields are significantly more expensive to replace than others)
