How to Change the Rear Wiper Blade:
The process is fairly straightforward, but the exact method might vary slightly depending on your specific Jeep Liberty's wiper arm design. However, the general steps are:
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and turn off the engine.
2. Locate the rear wiper arm. This is the arm that holds the wiper blade.
3. Lift the wiper arm away from the rear window. You may need to gently pry it away. Some models have a release button or lever.
4. Inspect the connection. There are generally two ways the blade attaches:
* Hook-type: The blade usually has a hook that fits onto a metal arm. You may need to push down a tab or squeeze a release button on the arm to detach the blade.
* Push-button or bayonet-type: These usually involve pushing a button or lever on the arm, and then pulling or twisting the wiper blade to remove it.
5. Once disconnected, remove the old wiper blade.
6. Compare the new wiper blade to the old one. Make sure they match in size and type of connection.
7. Attach the new wiper blade. Line up the blade with the wiper arm and firmly snap it in place, ensuring it’s securely attached.
8. Lower the wiper arm back onto the rear window.
9. Test the wiper. Turn on the rear wiper to ensure it’s working correctly and the blade isn't making any unusual noises.
