Why does the wiper not work after snowing?
1 Answers
After snowing, the wiper does not work because it is frozen. Precautions for a frozen wiper: Do not rush to turn on the wiper or try to pry it with your hands. Doing so can easily damage or deform the wiper blade, and forcibly activating the wiper may even burn out the motor in severe cases. Solutions for a frozen wiper: Warm up the car, and after the engine coolant temperature rises, use the heater to warm the windshield. The wiper will naturally thaw. You can also wipe the wiper with alcohol to effectively prevent it from freezing to the windshield. If alcohol is not available, everyday drinking liquor can be used as a substitute, which also works well.
