Lift the wiper arm. Rotate the wiper direction and remove the original framed wiper. Hold the wiper frame with both palms facing up in parallel, press the wiper blade with your thumbs, and pull the wiper blade vertically downward with slight force. Install the new wiper on the arm.
I've been driving Wuling cars for many years and am very familiar with changing wiper blades. Generally, you need to first identify the wiper blade model. For common Wuling models like the Hongguang, the typical sizes are 24 inches and 18 inches - buying the wrong size means they won't fit. Open the hood and carefully lift the wiper arm, being cautious not to let it snap back suddenly and crack the windshield (I've seen beginners make this mistake). When removing the old wiper, press the small button at the arm's end to slide it out; some models have a clip that just needs gentle prying. Align the new wiper with the slot, push it in until you hear a click to ensure it's secure, then return the arm and test the washer fluid spray. Wiper blades deteriorate quickly, especially in northern areas with snow and ice - replace them frequently rather than waiting until they streak. Safety first. Regularly check wiper blades for cracks or squeaking sounds to prevent accidents from poor visibility during rain.
As a young car owner, I find changing the Wuling wiper blades quite fun—it takes just ten minutes and costs nothing. First, I check the car model online to buy new wipers; standard 24-inch and 18-inch blades fit the Wuling Hongguang, available on Taobao or JD.com. After turning off the engine, I manually lift the wiper arm away from the windshield (I wear gloves to avoid scratches). Locate the release button at the top of the arm, press or push it, and the old wiper comes off easily. Align the new wiper, slide it in, ensure it’s securely fastened without wobbling, then gently lower it back and test-run. DIY saves dozens in repair fees and teaches a handy skill. Replace wipers promptly when they underperform in rain to ensure clear visibility. Opt for high-quality rubber blades for longer life and quieter operation.
