How to Remove Accord Wiper Blades?

Gently lift the wiper arm upwards in the direction of the wiper blade to move it away from the vehicle body. Locate the locking clip at the connection point between the wiper blade and the wiper arm. Pull the tab outward and then spread the wiper blade open. Finally, you can separate the wiper blade from the wiper arm. Proceed to replace the wiper rubber strip.
When I need to remove the Accord's wiper blades, I usually follow this method: First, turn off the engine and engage the parking brake for safety. Then gently lift the wiper arm to a vertical position against the windshield for easier access. Locate the U-shaped hook or clip near the base of the wiper blade, press or slide to release it with your fingers, and the blade will come off easily. Placing a soft cloth on the glass during the process helps prevent scratches. I often replace the wiper blades myself - Accord models use universal blades that are affordable online. Remember to perform regular maintenance like clearing debris and lubricating joints to extend their lifespan. Avoid pulling forcefully to prevent damaging the wiper motor arm. This DIY approach saves time and effort, making seasonal cleaning more convenient.
