Periodically check the condition of the windshield wiper and brushes for damage, loose connections, and cracks and wear on the working part of the brushes.
During operation, deposits of dirt and dust accumulate on the working parts of the brushes, as a result of which the efficiency of glass cleaning decreases. Therefore, the brushes should be cleaned regularly with a mild detergent solution.
When the wiper mechanism is operating, the threaded connections are loosened (bolts, nuts, mounting brackets). Therefore, the wiper mechanism needs periodic checking and tightening of the connections.
1. To check the tightness of the wiper arm nut, remove the decorative cap.
2. If cracks, signs of wear and deformation are found on the scraper parts of the brushes, or if the brushes stop cleaning the glass, they should be replaced with new ones.
3. To remove, pull the lever, press the latch and remove the brush holder from the lever hook.
4. Squeeze the scraper with thin pliers and pull it out of the brush holder frame.
5. Install the brush in reverse order.
