First raise the front wiper arm to its over-center position which helps hold the
Wiper Blade in the air and releases spring tension with the wiper arm to wiper pivot connection. Gently pull the plastic cap off the nut attached to the pivot of the front wiper arm after opening the hood. Take out the nut that holds the front wiper arm onto the wiper pivot shaft. With a suitable puller, separate the front wiper arm from the wiper splines, then take out the end of the wiper arm pivot from the wiper pivot. It's very important to make sure the
Wiper Motor is in park position by setting the ignition switch to ON and the multi-function knob to OFF. Once the wiper pivots are still, reverse the ignition to the OFF position. Turn the wiper motor to the parked position, then put the wiper arm pivot on the wiper pivot until the lower edge of the wiper arm's blade lines up with the wiper alignment lines in the blackout area of the lower
Windshield, about 15 mm (+/- 0.59 in.). With the wiper arms aligned, move the front wiper arm up a little and push down the wiper arm's hole onto the center wiper arm shaft hole. Tighten the nut connecting the front wiper arm to the wiper pivot shaft to a force of 23.7 Nm (210 in. lbs.). Use some rainwater to wet the front windshield, turn the front wipers on, switch the wipers off and adjust the wiper arms where they should be. After that, attach the plastic nut cap onto the pivot nut above the front wiper arm.
