Windshield wiper issues can be frustrating, especially when you’re caught in a downpour. Knowing how to identify and fix common problems can save you time and stress. Here’s a look at frequent wiper issues and how Clix Auto can resolve them.
Common Wiper Problems
-
Streaking or Smearing: Often caused by dirty or worn blades. Clean blades with rubbing alcohol or replace them if damaged.
-
Noisy Wipers: Chattering or squeaking may result from misaligned blades or a dirty windshield. Adjust the wiper arm or clean the glass thoroughly.
-
Wipers Not Moving: This could indicate a motor issue, blown fuse, or loose connection. A professional inspection is needed for electrical problems.
-
Clogged Washer Nozzles: Debris can block washer fluid spray. Use a pin to clear nozzles or flush with water.
DIY Fixes
-
Clean Blades and Windshield: Use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to remove grime.
-
Adjust Wiper Arms: Gently bend the arm to ensure proper contact with the windshield.
-
Replace Blades: Swap out old blades for new ones, ensuring they match your vehicle’s requirements.
