How to Replace the Window Cleaning Blade?

Window cleaning blade replacement methods are as follows: 1. For blades installed inside the plastic shell, this structure requires using a screwdriver to unscrew the screws, open the plastic shell, remove the old blade, and replace it with a new one. Some window cleaners have circular decorative covers over the screws, which need to be pried off first; 2. For blades inserted from the side, this structure only requires pulling the blade out from the side of the window cleaner and inserting a new one, without disassembling the product; 3. For blades inserted from the middle of the plastic shell, this is a new structure that requires first removing the blade fixing piece, pulling the blade out from the middle of the shell, then inserting a new blade and installing the blade fixing piece, also without disassembling the product.

Replacing wiper blades is actually quite easy, and I often do this kind of minor maintenance for my car myself. The first step is to lift the wiper arm gently to avoid it snapping back and damaging the windshield. The old wiper blade usually has a clip or button—just press or slide it to remove it. Make sure to check whether your car uses a hook-type or snap-in design. After removing the old one, install the new blade by aligning it properly and securing it in place, then lower the wiper arm slowly to test it. After replacement, spray some windshield washer fluid to check if it wipes cleanly without noise. When choosing wiper blades, always ensure the size matches your car model. Worn-out wiper blades can leave streaks or even scratch the glass, so it's recommended to replace them once a year or when the rubber hardens. It doesn’t cost much and takes only about 10 minutes—even beginners can do it themselves.

I'm always very careful when replacing wiper blades to prevent accidents. First, park the car and turn off the engine, then lift the wiper arm away from the windshield. The old blade usually has clips or a sliding mechanism—just push it to remove, don't force it. Insert the new wiper blade, align and secure it, then return it to its original position and test it. Safety tip: The wiper arm has strong springs, so wear gloves to prevent slipping. A related suggestion is to buy silicone material for durability, and adjust the angle after replacement to avoid noise. The whole process takes just a few minutes, which is more convenient than going to a repair shop. Regularly checking the wiper condition can protect the windshield and extend its lifespan.

Changing the wiper blades yourself is super quick, I just did it last night. To remove the old ones, just press a button and slide them out. For the new ones, align and snap them into place—make sure not to install them backward, or they won't clean properly. After that, test them to ensure there's no noise. When choosing wiper blades, measure the size to avoid them being too tight. After the replacement, the clearer windshield makes driving safer.
