If you happen to have an ML it is always a good idea to replace the windshield wipers once a year before the rainy season starts.

This is a very easy job that you can do right at home in a matter of minutes with no tools required.

 

You will need:

  • Replacement wiper blades
  • Soft cloth

 

Let's get it done

 

1. Lift the wiper blade into its service position

 

2. Turn the blade horizontally

 

3. Depress the clip and push/ pull the blade until it releases from the wiper arm

 

4. Replace with new wiper blade, pushing it back into place until you hear the click.

 

5. Repeat on the opposite side.

 

6. Test with water to ensure proper operation

 

Do not use dry and also ensure base of windscreen is clear of dirt and debris before testing.
