Windscreen Wiper Linkage Push Rod Arms Repair

Product Information

It is usually a set of rods with cup and ball bearings that manoeuvre the wiper arms across the windscreen when the motor is running. Final job:On the outside of each hinge cover are two rubber tongues that need to be carefully pressed downward to locate underneath the edge of the wing panel.

Honda recalled the 2003 4-door Honda Accord for windshield wiper motor failures (service bulletin 08-043).Cleaning up:The remnants of the old hinge covers are lifted off and the underside of the moulding cleaned smooth, and debris removed from the holes.

Best way:Because of its width, it’s a struggle to withdraw the moulding into the engine bay – easier to push it up the screen and withdraw it from the side. Easy to break:Six plastic clips secure the intake moulding. Two fine screwdrivers are used to lift the inner pin slightly, allowing the whole clip to be removed.

The cost of a wiper linkage replacement depends on your car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends.
