Why does the wiper make a loud and dry sound?
1 Answers
When the wiper is dry and makes a loud scraping sound, it is usually caused by the aging of the wiper rubber strip, and a new wiper needs to be replaced. Most cases where the wiper squeaks and fails to clean properly are due to wear and roughness on the rubber strip, which causes abnormal noise or incomplete removal of rainwater during operation, making it difficult to see clearly while driving in the rain. Below are some daily usage precautions for wipers: 1. Maintain moisture when using the wiper: Ensure the rubber wiper strip remains adequately moist during daily use. Only with sufficient moisture can it maintain excellent flexibility and ensure tight contact with the windshield. If the windshield lacks moisture before use, dry wiping can lead to counterproductive results. 2. Wait until more raindrops accumulate on the windshield before activating the wiper: If raindrops accumulate slowly and do not obstruct vision, it is best to wait until more raindrops gather on the windshield before turning on the wiper. When using the wiper in light rain, it is advisable to spray windshield washer fluid first to ensure sufficient moisture for lubricating the wiper.
