In the event of a breakdown, windshield wipers, popularly called "wipers", will not be able to fully remove from the surface of the windshield the dirt that forms on it during the movement of the car in bad weather conditions: during precipitation in the form of rain or snow. Such a malfunction significantly reduces driving safety and requires urgent repair.

Step 1
In this connection, the failure of the "wipers" makes it impossible for the further operation of the car. By the way, the operation of a car with such a malfunction is a direct violation of the Road Traffic Rules, which is fraught with penalties for the driver from the representatives of the competent authorities.
Step 2
We propose to study the dismantling of this device on the example of carrying out such work on a VAZ "tenth generation" car.
To remove the wipers, you must first disconnect the ground cable from the battery.
Step 3
Then, at the rear of the engine compartment, the body trim is removed, located just below the windshield.
Step 4
Further, in the same place, in the area of / u200b / u200blocating the main brake cylinder, as well as on the left side, noise insulation elements are removed.
Step 5
If the washer reservoir causes inconvenience in operation, then release it from the fastening by unfastening the fastener and take it to the side.
Step 6
At this, the preparatory stage is over, and now we proceed to what, in fact, the repair was started for.
Step 7
Disconnecting the wiper electrical block from the harness, the bolt of the gear motor is unscrewed.
Step 8
Then, by unscrewing the nuts, the right and left brackets of the brush holders are freed from the fastening.
Step 9
The wiper is now completely free of its fasteners and can be removed by first unfolding a quarter of a turn.

All further actions depend on what exactly is out of order. But in any case, it is much more convenient to repair such a complex mechanism on a workbench than under the hood of a car.
