How to Disassemble the Lavida Wiper?
3 Answers
Here is the method to disassemble the Lavida wiper: 1. Loosen the nut on the wiper arm and remove the wiper arm assembly. 2. Then remove the plastic waterproof grille on the wiper. 3. Use a wrench to unscrew the wiper mounting bolt, and the wiper can be disassembled. Below is some related information about wipers: 1. Before heavy rain, check whether the car wiper can work properly. 2. In heavy rain, fast and large raindrops hit the windshield. Even if the wiper moves quickly, it is difficult to completely remove the raindrops, affecting the driver's vision. To ensure driving safety, stop driving immediately. 3. When light rain starts while driving, do not rush to turn on the wiper. At this time, there is insufficient moisture on the front window, and the wiper will dry wipe, which will only have the opposite effect.
I've replaced the wiper blades on my Lavida several times, and the process is quite simple, but you have to be careful not to scratch the windshield. First, turn off the engine and park the car on a flat surface to ensure safety for both yourself and the vehicle. The Lavida's wipers usually have a hook-type connection. You just need to locate the small clip or button at the joint between the wiper arm and the blade, press or lift it gently to release the clip. Then, pull the wiper blade slightly toward the front of the car, and it will detach from the wiper arm. For older models, the clip might be a bit tight—apply some force but avoid being too rough to prevent damaging the parts. After removal, inspect the spring and bracket of the wiper arm for rust or wear, as these can significantly affect wiper performance. Clean off any dirt on the arm before installing the new wiper blade—just align it with the slot and push until it clicks into place. The whole process requires no special tools and takes about 10 minutes, saving you repair costs. Remember to check regularly and replace the blades before the rainy season to avoid blurred vision—safety comes first.
I used to be afraid of removing wiper blades too, thinking it was too tricky to operate, but the Lavida's design is actually quite user-friendly. First, park the car and turn off the engine, then engage the handbrake for safety. Locate the connection point of the wiper arm, which usually has a small hook-like structure. Give the slot a firm push or pull to release it. Take your time when removing the wiper blade—it comes off quite easily. Wear gloves during the process to prevent slipping and reduce the risk of finger cuts. After removal, clean the connection area of the wiper arm; accumulated water can cause rust, affecting future installation. When installing the new blade, align it with the hook and snap it into place—you'll hear a click when it's secure. The whole process requires no screwdrivers or pliers, making it simple to handle. I also noticed less noise after replacing the wiper blades because the new rubber fits better. Regular replacement is key to maintenance—at least once a year—ensuring safer driving in rain or snow.
