Execution sequence
1. We prepare the car for work (see «Preparing the car for maintenance and repair»).
2. Open the hood and flip off the protective covers from the left and right wiper arms.
3. Using a 13 mm socket wrench, unscrew the nuts securing the left and right wiper arms.
4. Remove the wiper arms.
5. Remove the seal of the shield of the engine compartment.
6. We remove the ventilation grill.
7. Disconnect the hoses from the nozzles (see «Windshield washer nozzles - adjustment and replacement») and finally remove the grille.
8. Remove the plastic dirt cover of the gear motor.
9. With an 8 mm socket wrench with an extension, we unscrew the four bolts of the trapezoid and the gear motor.
We examine the trapezium and hinges. In case of mechanical damage, only drive rods are changed separately.
10. To do this, we insert a 14 mm open-end wrench into the spacer at the junction of the rod with the drive of the lever axis and, overcoming the force of the latch, disconnect the rod from the drive.
11. In the same way, disconnect the rod from the gear motor crank and remove the rod.
12. Remove the second rod in the same way.
13. Install the parts in reverse order.
