FRONT

NOTE: Be certain that the wiper motor is in the park position before attempting to install the front wiper arms. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and move the right (wiper) multi-function switch control knob to its OFF position. If the wiper pivots move, wait until they stop moving, then turn the ignition switch back to the OFF position. The front wiper motor is now in its park position.





1. The front wiper arms (1) must be indexed to the pivot shafts with the front wiper motor in the park position to be properly installed. Position the wiper arm pivot end onto the wiper pivot shaft so that the lug on the pivot shaft engages the pocket on the underside of the wiper arm pivot end.
2. Once the wiper blade is aligned, lift the wiper arm away from the windshield slightly to relieve the spring tension on the pivot end and push the pivot end of the wiper arm down firmly and evenly over the pivot shaft.
3. Install and tighten the nut (3) that secures the wiper arm to the pivot shaft. Tighten the nut to 23 Nm (17 ft. lbs.).
4. Snap the plastic cap (2) over the wiper arm pivot end.
