Here are the detailed steps for removing a frameless wiper blade: 1. First, lift the wiper blade up. 2. Then, remove the wiper blade from the metal arm. 3. A small metal hook clamps onto the original rubber strip to secure it. 4. Pry up the metal hook and pull out the wiper rubber strip. 5. Pry open the plastic cap on this side of the wiper blade. 6. Replace with a new rubber strip, cover the plastic cap, and clamp the metal hook to secure the new rubber strip. Below is some relevant information about wiper blades: 1. Wiper blades can effectively improve the driver's field of vision. The switch is located on the lever behind the left side of the steering wheel, with separate switches for the front and rear wiper blades. 2. When using wiper blades, ensure the rubber strip is sufficiently moist. Only with adequate moisture can the rubber maintain good flexibility. Proper use of wiper blades helps maintain a clear field of vision and extends their lifespan. 3. Wiper rubber strips are made of rubber and need to be replaced regularly; otherwise, they may affect the performance of the car's wiper blades.

To remove a frameless wiper blade, my method is to first prepare a towel or old cloth and place it on the windshield to prevent the wiper arm from damaging the glass when released. Next, gently lift the wiper arm from the glass, usually above the car hood. Locate the connection point between the wiper blade and the wiper arm. Common frameless wiper blades have a small clip or button on the edge or top of the connector. Press or pull the clip with your fingers until you feel a click, indicating it has been released. Then, push the wiper blade outward along the direction of the wiper arm to easily remove it. Avoid using excessive force during the process, as hard pulling may damage the plastic parts. After removal, return the wiper arm to its original position to prevent it from falling freely. I remember last time when I replaced it, I didn’t use a towel, and a small scratch ended up marking the glass—I regretted not taking precautions earlier. Additionally, it’s recommended to perform this task in dry weather, as rain can affect visibility. Regularly check the wiper blade for wear and tear. If there are any scratches or unusual noises, replace it promptly—safety comes first when driving.
