We show you how to easily replace the windshield wipers on your A class Mercedes.

 

Wipe on Wipe Off

If your windshield wipers are no longer functioning sufficiently they will need to be replaced before you actually need them.

This is a relatively simple job that you can do in a matter of minutes in your driveway without any tools needed.

Let's get started!

• Make sure that you have the proper replacement wiper blades for your year and model.
• Lift the wiper arm up.
• Push or pull the retaining clip upwards to release the old blade.
• Remove the old blade (Don't let the wiper arm go or it will smash into your windscreen!)
• Insert the new blade and push/pull the retainer clip back into place.
• Put the wiper arm back down.

PRO TIP: DO NOT dry activate the new wipers if your windscreen is still dirty, the microscopic dirt will damage the new blades before they have had a chance to work.
