  • This video shows how to change windshield wipers. While it may seem simple, it is a good reference so when you change yours it is an easy process (especially if it is raining outside). The sample vehicle is a 2002 Pt Cruiser but the same method will work for any car that has a U shaped wiper blade arm. Most Dodge, Chrysler, Chevy, Ford, Honda, Toyota, and Nissan cars will have a similar if not the same procedure.
    Here is where I get cheap wiper blades: www.amazon.com/...

    Thanks for making it simple and not starting on when you were born, your first date, first car, and yata yata. Wherein, a lot of videos go through all this crap I could care less about. I want to just know how to change wipers without listening them going through their life cycle of the posters life lol.

    Hey Chris, I`d say a neat idea would be an updated version of this, including other arm and clip types such as pin, bayonet, plastic, etc

    God bless you. I have watched like six videos and was stuck in the rain with worn out blades the other day and this is the FIRST video that actually shows, unobscured, how to get the dang wiper blade off!!

    It's worth noting that if you start getting streaking or whatever and think you need new blades, get some denatured alcohol (from Lowe's or wherever), and use it to wipe the rubber blade with paper towels until the paper towels stops getting black with dirt, and you're good as new. They'll last YEARS. Don't use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, it's not the same thing. Denatured is ethanol. Vodka or 151 would be a more expensive alternative if you don't have any denatured around.

    • @jimmy1395
      @jimmy1395 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The alcohol will dry out the rubber.
      Automobile glass cleaner will do the work

    Hey Chris! I need help with my 2009 Dodge Grand Caravans rear windshield wiper, the super blade broke and I got an entire new arm for it but the wiper hits only a little bit of the windshield and doesn't hit the whole windshield like it should, how to I make it so the entire wiper arm is used an nothing gets skipped so I can actually see out my rear windshield???

    How often should we replace them? About every year?

  • @fpperez14

    Hey Chris! Subscriber here, I've always enjoyed watching your videos. I'm in the middle of a dilemma with my wipers, currently, they're jumping, skipping, chattering. I always have bad luck with them (any brand, any quality). Do you think it has something to do with my wiper arm? It's a 2014 Mazda 6. I live where it snows, I use de-icer, and the car wash I go to uses wax all over the car. Do you think it's one of these elements? I don't know what to do besides buy new wipers every couple months.

  • @frankgonzalez24
    @frankgonzalez24 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You went to the auto parts store to buy them so why not have them install them as well. especially if you don't know how to do it? Most auto parts store will do it for free, JUST ASK. Sometimes they are busy and might take a while before they can change them for you.
