How to Turn Off the Rear Wiper?
2 Answers
To turn off the rear wiper, you need to lift the wiper lever upward, which is the same method used to turn off the high beams. The rear wiper is the wiper on the rear windshield of the car. Rear wipers are commonly equipped on SUVs, MPVs, hatchbacks, and some liftback cars, and many vehicles come with a rear wiper. Maintenance tips for wipers: 1. When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield on sunny days, always spray windshield washer fluid and avoid dry wiping; 2. If there are stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, clean them manually; 3. When lifting the wiper blade during car washing or routine cleaning, hold the spine of the wiper blade and gently return it—do not snap it back abruptly; 4. In winter, use an ice scraper to remove ice from the windshield first to avoid putting extra strain on the wiper.
I usually drive different car models and find that turning off the rear wiper is quite common. There is usually a dedicated switch on the control lever on the left or right side of the steering wheel. Just find a knob or button and turn it to the OFF position to turn it off. Specific operation: turn the knob counterclockwise to the end or press the pause button once, most models are designed this way. If it cannot be turned off, it may be due to a stuck motor or wiring problem. Do not force it to avoid damaging the parts. Remember to try the operation when parking for safety. Turning off the rear wiper while driving in the rain can avoid distracting the view and save energy. Turning it off regularly during car washes can also protect the rubber wiper blades and extend their service life. If you forget to turn it off, the continuous operation of the rear wiper will increase power consumption and wear. It is recommended to check the settings every time you start the car. This experience comes from years of self-driving trips, and simple maintenance can save a lot of car repair costs.
