2 Answers
Steps to replace the wiper blades on a Honda Fit: 1. Lift the metal wiper arm away from the windshield until it is perpendicular to the glass; 2. Press the tab to remove the old wiper blade and detach it from the metal arm; 3. Insert the new wiper blade and gently rotate it; 4. Once the hook clicks into place, lower the wiper arm back onto the windshield. The Honda Fit is a compact car produced by GAC Honda, with exterior dimensions of 4109mm in length, 1694mm in width, and 1537mm in height, a wheelbase of 2530mm, and a body style of a 5-door, 5-seat hatchback. It features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension.
I've been driving a Fit for several years, and changing the wiper blades is quite simple—it only takes a few minutes. Park the car on a flat surface and turn off the engine, then gently lift the wiper arm away from the windshield to let it stand upright. At the bottom of the old wiper blade, there's usually a small button or clip—press it and slide the blade to one side to remove it easily. For the new blade, open the package, align it correctly, and slide it in until you hear a click, indicating it's locked in place. Then slowly lower the wiper arm back to its original position, making sure it doesn't touch the windshield. After turning on the car, spray some water to test if it wipes smoothly and cleanly. Why change them often? Over time, the rubber on wiper blades deteriorates, which can blur your vision in the rain—pretty dangerous. So I check them every month or two, and cleaning the windshield also helps extend the wiper blades' lifespan. A good-quality replacement only costs a few dozen bucks—totally worth it.
