If the wiper does not clean the window well, the blade is likely worn or cracked.

Replace it.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to the wiper arm or other components, do not try to move the wiper arm across the window by hand.

1. Raise the wiper arm and rotate the blade clockwise to unlock it, then remove the blade.
