• Q: How to remove and install a wiper arm on 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 Van?

  A: Before taking off the wiper arm, pull up on it, allowing the latch to go out. Then, let the arm drop and stay off the windshield. Move the tiny spring washer hose guard slid to the side of the wiper blade a little higher and separate the washer hose from the nipple next to the pivot. Rock the wiper arm back and forth to take it off the pivot. Before you put on the wiper arm and blade, park the wiper motor in the Park position. The lower edge of each wiper blade tip should be positioned 65 ± 25 mm (2.56 ± 0.98 inches) from the upper edge of the lower windshield blackout area on the driver's side and 50 ± 25 mm (1.97 ± 0.98 inches) on the passenger's side. Release the wiper arm from the windshield a little, press the latch into the locked spot and gently let go until the blade sits properly on the windshield. Connect the hoses to the nipples close to the wiper pivots and get the guards into place. Wipe the windshield while it's wet, stop the wipers and make sure the arms are in the proper place.
