Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!

In order to access the wipers in this car, you need to actually push your ignition without starting the vehicle. Release it, while still in the car. Hit that once, and it should put your wiper in the appropriate spot. You cannot do this after the door has been shut, and the key is off and your dash shuts off.

To remove the wiper blades on this car, you grab on your wiper arm, press down on this button and just pull up, and the wiper will be released.

To reinstall the wipers, lift up on your arm and place it in the track. It should clip right into place. The same procedure for the passenger side: you lift up, press down the button and pull out.

To put your wipers back down, you're going to press your ignition with either the car running if you're about to leave. Push down on your wiper arm and it will place the wipers back into its home position.
