How to Change Your Windshield Wipers

Windshield wipers can last for about 6 to 12 months. However, if the rubber blades are exposed to inclement weather, such as rain and extreme temperatures, they can wear out more quickly. If your windshield wipers are no longer working as they should, they may need to be replaced, especially if you notice any of the following red flags:

• Cracked rubber
• Separated blades
• Screeching noise
• Gaps in windshield clearing
• Scratches to windshield glass
• Loose chunks of blade

You can order brand-new windshield wipers for your Genesis, Hyundai, Mazda, or Mitsubishi from the parts center at Triple J Saipan.

Windshield Wiper Replacement: Step-by-Step

It’s relatively inexpensive to change your windshield wipers. Our ever-changing service and parts specialsmake it easier to get OEM parts for a lower price. Once you have your new windshield wipers, how do you change them? You can change them at home or have a professional do it for you. If you’re taking the DIY route, follow these simple steps to change wipers quickly and easily:

1. Position your windshield wipers so they’re upright.
2. Pull them carefully away from the windshield.
3. Read the instructions on your windshield wiper’s packaging for how to remove them. You’ll either have to depress a tab to pull it off or slide it off with the wiper arm.
4. Discard the old wiper blades.
5. Clean your windshield thoroughly to prevent dust and dirt from getting on your new windshield wipers.
6. Install the new windshield wipers by doing the reverse of steps two and three.
7. Replace the blade on the other side.
8. Carefully return your windshield wipers back to their regular position.
