Change the Windshield Wiper Hook
The windshield wiper hook on your automobile is part of the windshield wiper arm assembly. The hook part of the assembly is where the wiper blade attaches to the wiper arm. The hook itself is fixed to the entire wiper arm; so if the hook breaks, the entire arm will need to be replaced. Replacement wiper arms can be purchased from most auto parts stores for your vehicle.
Instructions
1. Pull the wiper arm assembly away from the windshield until the wiper arm locks in a vertical position.
2. Swing the wiper arm assembly up and away from the wiper arm until the wiper blade sits perpendicular to the wiper arm.
3. Pull the wiper blade away from the wiper arm to remove the wiper blade from the arm.
4. Loosen and remove the retaining nut at the base of the wiper arm holding the wiper arm to the wiper motor assembly using a socket wrench.
5. Pull the wiper arm assembly up and away from the wiper motor assembly.
6. Mount the new wiper arm and secure it to the wiper motor. Then replace the blade. Installation is the reverse of removal.
