Hybrid wipers are consumables. Generally speaking, their lifespan is two years, and very few hybrid wipers can be used for more than three years. After summer exposure to the sun and the cold of winter, wiper blades will age and crack. When you notice residual smudges, streaks, vibrations, or unusual noises on the glass while using them, it indicates that you need to replace your wipers. This article will introduce tips for replacing wipers.
When removing U-shaped wipers, you need to push the wiper towards the base of the wiper arm first. After it completely disengages from the wiper arm interface, pull it out in the opposite direction. Before pulling it out, rotate the movable wiper blade slightly, otherwise, it may be obstructed during removal. Many wipers are very tight during removal, so do not use excessive force to avoid damaging the wiper interface or injuring your hand. When installing, first thread the wiper interface into the wiper arm, then pull the U-shaped connector up into the U-shaped slot.
The plug-and-play wiper arm interface involves directly inserting the wiper into the wiper arm and locking it in place with a locking block. Identifying this type of interface is straightforward: simply look for a "small button" on the wiper arm. When replacing, press the small button on the wiper arm all the way down with one hand, so the wiper can move, and use the other hand to pull the wiper outward to remove it. Installing is even simpler; just insert the new wiper directly into the wiper arm.
Some car models feature a hidden wiper design, making it impossible to lift the wiper arm when the car is turned off. First, ensure the vehicle is in an idle state, then turn off the engine and switch the key to the "OFF" position, but do not remove the key. At this time, press the wiper control lever to the "tap wipe" position, and the wipers will stop vertically, allowing for replacement. Once replaced, turn the power back on and the wipers will reset. Users can also refer to the user manual for instructions or call the brand's 4S store for consultation.
Hybrid wipers generally need to be replaced promptly after two or three years to ensure normal usage. Since wipers are wear-and-tear parts, it is important to choose brands with a good reputation. BOSOKO is a company that specializes in the production of hybrid wipers, with over 20 years of production experience, strong R&D capabilities, and a strict quality control system to ensure product quality.
