      Note

      Do not use excessive force when pulling out the rear wiper rubber in order to prevent deformation of the rear wiper rubber backing plate and damage to the rear wiper blade claw.

      Lightly pressing (gripping) the center of the rear wiper blade can make it easier to lift up and pull out the rear wiper rubber.

      Tech Tips


      • If the rear wiper blade claw is not in the rear wiper rubber groove, grasp the rear wiper rubber and slide the rubber up and down multiple times to insert the claw into the groove.

      • Applying a small amount of window washer fluid to the rear wiper rubber can make it easier to insert into the groove.
