Excelle wiper removal method: To remove the wiper, first push it towards the root of the wiper arm. Once it is completely detached from the wiper arm interface, pull it out in the opposite direction. Before pulling it out, rotate the movable wiper blade slightly; otherwise, it may encounter resistance during removal. The function of the wiper is to clear rain, snow, and dust from the windshield that obstruct the view, playing a crucial role in driving safety. The Excelle is a compact car under SAIC-GM Buick, with dimensions of 4468 mm in length, 1765 mm in width, and 1469 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2611 mm. In terms of power, the Excelle is equipped with a naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 107 hp, a maximum torque of 133 Nm, and a maximum power of 79 kW.

I've taken apart the wiper blades on a Buick Excelle before, and it felt quite simple, suitable for beginners to try. First, park the car in a safe place and turn off the engine to prevent the wipers from moving randomly. Then, lift the wiper arm perpendicular to the windshield so the arm stays in place. Take a close look at the connection point of the wiper blade—there's usually a small tab button or slider there. Press that tab with your thumb while gently pulling the wiper blade outward with your other hand, and it will slide out. Avoid yanking hard to prevent damaging the connector. After removal, you can clean any rust on the wiper arm or wipe the glass area with a cloth. When installing a new wiper blade, align it with the track first, push it into place until you hear a click, and you're done. The whole process takes just a few minutes, but don’t forget to wear gloves for a better grip. Regularly disassembling and checking the parts can extend their lifespan.

Hey, the removal method for the Excelle wiper blades is super straightforward. Park the car and turn off the engine, then straighten the wiper arm upwards to locate the connection clip. Press it down while pulling the wiper blade outward—be gentle and avoid excessive force. After removal, simply push the new blade in until it clicks into place. Be cautious of the strong spring in the wiper arm during the process; to prevent it from snapping back and hitting the windshield, it's safest to wrap the arm head with a cloth. This is also a good opportunity to clean the glass and apply some lubricant to the wiper arm joint for rust prevention and maintenance. DIY saves both time and money.

Safety first when removing wiper blades. Turn off and park the car levelly, wear protective gear. Lift and secure the wiper arm in an upright position to prevent snapping back. Locate the locking tab, press and slide to remove the wiper blade. Inspect the joint for wear, lubricate promptly to prevent noise when installing new blades. Ensure proper locking and test for smooth operation. Maintaining this detail enhances rainy-day driving safety.
