G350 BlueTEC G-Wagon 2011 - 1 Windshield Wiper is Loose

https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...usp=share_link

2 Videos on the issue.

1. 1 Wiper is still working while the other one is loose: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CG-...usp=share_link

2. The 2nd wiper pivot point seems to still be working and spinning: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18yK...usp=share_link

Anyone have any advice on the solution to this problem!

(starting to rain a lot in Australia)

Thanks

Andy

I tightened mine down like this...

That black plastic piece should snap off and underneath is a nut that you can tighten down. Make sure you orient the wiper to where you want it, then tighten that nut down. Snap the black plastic piece back on the end there. About once every two years i might get a little movement. I just tighten them down and good to go for awhile. That's how it works on my 550.
