Why Do Windshield Wipers Stop Working in Snowy Weather?
1 Answers
This happens because the wipers are frozen. First, thaw them out and then replace the windshield washer fluid with an antifreeze type. When parking for extended periods in snowy conditions, lift the wipers up to prevent them from freezing. Solution by Warming Up the Car: Start by warming up the car. Once the engine coolant temperature rises, use the heater to warm the windshield, and the wipers will naturally thaw. Solution Using Alcohol: You can wipe the wipers with alcohol to effectively prevent them from freezing to the windshield. If alcohol is not available, everyday drinking liquor can also serve as a substitute and provide decent results.
