The wiper arms are usually splined like an axle through a hub so once you remove the 2 nuts, they should wiggle off or require light prying (work your way around in a circle with light prying force). Here is a Bentley reference though just so you have it:


Note:

Before removing wiper arms, make sure wiper motor is in park position.

Removing

- Remove wiper blades.

- Pry-off caps (2x) on wiper arms with a screwdriver.

- Loosen nuts (13 mm A/F) -arrows-, but do not remove completely.

- Loosen wiper arms -1- by moving them gently.

- Remove nuts completely and take off wiper arms.

- Remove rubber seal -2-.

- Carefully pry out plenum cover -3- at edge of windshield and lift up.

- Detach washer jet connections on rear of plenum cover -3- and take off cover.

This is for removing the wiper arms and the cover behind it to get to the wiper transmission. Hope this helps.
