RE: HELP ASAP
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.
