NEED HELP URGENTLY!!! Windshield Wipers

ou77kg · 12-11-2007, 01:07 PM

Howdy ya'll. Im down here in Oklahoma City and we are in the worst winter ice storm this state has ever seen. Anyways, so my windshield wiper on the driver side decided to become completely jacked up yesterday. The motor works fine, it just spins on the wiper arm. The passenger side is functioning perfectly. How do i take the entire wiper arm off? I think that is what needs to be replaced. Like if i turn the wipers on it will push both wipers to the fully extended position, however the driver side wiper wont come back and eventually just gets pushed all the way over to my side view mirror. I can push it back down by hand, but then it's only good for one wipe. Thanks and any help or suggestions are greatly appereciated.
