Default Dumb question: How the hell do I take off the rear wiper?

I have a new one I want to put on there and I have no idea how the old one comes off. The directions on the wiperblade box SUCK.

To remove blade and the chasis that holds it:

Depress the button underneath where the blade chasis pivots and slide the chasis off of the arm.

Ok, calm down.. Walk away for a sec........ Go bak.. What exactly are you trying to do?? Change the wiper or delete the wiper?? If you want to remove the entire blade/motor.. Its easy as 1,2,3..

1. pull plastic cover off

2. take 10mm bolt off

3. pull up slightly on wiper and unscrew it out( the rest is obvious )


done............

Changing the rear wiper blade is a pain because the arm doesn't pivot up enough for a good amount of clearance. Once you free the blade from the arm, try maneuvering it until you can pull it out of the wiper arm.

It's a hassle, so try not to damage the new one going in.

A small screwdriver will unlock the wiper arm. Then push the entire arm towards the pivot point.
