most wipers are pretty simple to change. most of them you push the lock down on your wiper arm, and pull it off. go to any auto parts supplier and buy your wipers and most of them will show you how they unlatch.

How do you change your windshield wipers? Do you need to look for a specific type?
Most wiper arms from the pivot point upward today have a U shaped 180 degree hook on the end. It's always easier if you sit behind the wheel with your wipers operating in the slow position. Time the wiper blades at or near the longest end upward of their stroke. Quickly turn off the ignition system. Your goal is to park the blades as close to the fully swept position as you can. It's the easiest position to remove the blade and blade frame. Lift the blade fully off the windshield. If you look closely, there is a button beneath the steel flat blade arm at the very end This button is at the very center of the blade but underneath the steel arm. The darn slider button is small but it must be slid toward the bottom of the windshield less than 1/8 of an inch. At the same time with the button is pushed down pull the wiper blade toward the piviot point of the wiper arm. The entire blade and frame slides downward and off.
Do the reverse when installing the new blades. Make sure the bayonet in the center of the new blade is pointing toward you then slide it on the steel wiper arm with the center plastic bayonet facing the base of the windshield. The blade and frame slides straight on the U shaped hook, no button to press untill it's time to change them again.
Big hint: Any automotive parts store will do it for you. Especially if the customer is a lady. Do I ever get help He*l no. I'm too old and surely not good lookin.

sometimes if you buy them at like autozone half the time they will put them on for you..
Yes, every make %26amp; model of car has its own size. Ask the guy behind the counter at the auto parts store to look it up on the computer (or look it up yourself in those books that hang from the shelves).
Most autoparts stores will put them on for you at no extra charge, and you can watch them do it. They usually just snap on or off.

Need help! 2002 mercury cougar tool light, buttons, back windshield wiper and spark plugs?
My hubby got a cougar a couple of years ago. for as long as I can remember there has been a yellow tool looking light showing on the ceiling. If ya have a cougar you would know what I'm talking about. What does the light mean? We've gotten the car tuned up but it hasn't gone away. Also we don't know how to turn on the back windshield wiper or change the spark plugs. There are also theses buttons that remains useless on the dash. I heard you can program them but how? This car didn't come with a users manual so I'm having to ask on here.

That is a service reminder light. It comes on at preset intervals to remind you that service is needed, like oil changes. It has to be reset after service is performed. How to reset the light, and your other questions are answered in the Owners Guide and the Maintenance Guide. You can download a free copy off one of the Ford sites like www.genuineservice.com.

2004 saturn Ion windshield wiper arm stabilizer bar?
Husband changed windshield blades on 2004 saturn Ion. The stabilizer arm broke where the aluminium crimps around the plastic on the pivoter (where the arm pivots) Arm now flops all over the place when turned on. First question can I get a windshield wiper arm puller for this car and if so where. and second question any hints or tips to fix this problem without spending $200 { what saturn has quoted us to buy new parts(transmission linkage) problem} would be greatly appreciated.
2004 saturn Ion windshield wiper arm stabilizer bar?
if you look at the petersons manual for that car-should just have to push in the tab at the stub and should come right off-did one yeasterday-go to your local auto salvage yard to find one...should be plenty of em out there
2004 saturn Ion windshield wiper arm stabilizer bar?
The %26quot;Best Answer%26quot; is incorrect. The Ion wiper arm fits onto a tapered shaft and is held on with a nut. If you can't gently wiggle the wiper arm off the post, you need to use a puller to prevent damage. I used a small puller that was designed for removing battery cables from the battery posts.
no way around not replacing the trans, you can do it yourself, you can use a battery cable puller to remove the arms or just remove the nuts then wiggle the arm and it should come loose.

A bottle of Windshield Wiper Fluid was left in my car's back seat and burst from the heat. How do I clean it??
I bought a bottle of windshield wiper fluid when I got my car to get the battery changed. However, I was stupid enough to forget about the fluid in my back seat and the whole bottle burst the next day because the car was out in the sun the entire day. all the fluid got on my floor mats and the rug on the back seat. Everything dried and the entire car smells like alcohol every time I get in. Also, the back rug/mat turned blue. I'm wondering if anyone knows how to get the blue off from the mat and the floor? This is very embarrassing and I feel very stupid for forgetting the bottle in the back seat.
Thanks!

you can take and shampoo all of this and that should get the majority of it out,it might be permanently stained though on somethings ,usually when alcohol sets a stain in like that,its sort of hard to get out,id try a real good shampoo first though,and hopefully all of it will come out,don't feel bad though i had a can of starting fluid blow up in one of my vehicles,it sounded like the car blew up when it went off and it was sitting in plain site too,it only got up to 98 degrees out side that day ,but way hotter in the car,good luck with it hope this helps.

You don't give enough information but here is a rule of thumb. Take the affected mats out, let them air dry, do the same with the car, open the doors and let it air out for a while. At least a day, try using a solution of a bit of Dawn Dishwashing detergent and some water, wash the area thouroughly and allow to dry. Once that is done spray some fabreeze on all the upholstery. It should make everything look like new.
Milo You should have kept it all in the trunk ,would you keep gasoline in the rear seating area? Dude like we all say got a clue? Why do vehicles all have trunks in them? The bottom line is you should keep all fluids in the garage and not in the car and the only things to keep in a trunk is the spare tire a set of jumper cables and emergency items like flares in case of any breakdowns.My oh my people just never learn from any of us do they ? Well my man you'll learn someday from all of this won't you?.....
