How to Replace Wiper Blades on the Chevy S10

How to Replace Wiper Blades on the Chevy S10

Bad wiper blades not only diminish driving visibility during a storm, but also may cause your car to fail inspection. New wipers are affordable and easy to install. Wipers are widely available from automotive parts stores or discount retailers. The toughest choice is picking a brand of wiper suited to your needs.

Instructions

    1

    Find the right size wiper for your Chevy S10. The wipers should be 20 inches for both driver and passenger sides of the car. However, if you want to be absolutely certain, Rain-X has an online guide to wiper sizes.

    2

    Visit the retailer of your choice to purchase the wipers.

    3

    Lift the wiper blade off the windshield.

    4

    Look for a button or mechanism at the center of the wiper and press it.

    5

    Slide the wiper blade out of the J hook of wipers arm. The blade as a whole unit should slide out.

    6

    Slide the new wiper blade into the J hook, until you hear the button click.

    7

    Tug the wiper blade gently to secure it in the J hook.

    8

    Remove any plastic covering from the wiper blades rubber edge.

    9

    Rest the new wiper blade against the windshield. Begin to reinstall the other new wiper, if necessary.
