Wiper arm issue - please help
I am trying remove wiper arm on my 2005 S500 4Matic (W220 chasiss). After removing the nuts, the arm does not budge from the spindle at all. I used some penetrating oils, but no luck. Are they very hard to remove? All help is appreciated.
Thanks. |
Yes, most older wiper arms get stuck on there pretty good, the shaft is a tapered spline.
They make tools for it, wiper arm pullers that will press on the arm and shaft safely and pull it loose. I usually have good luck by rocking them back and forth pushing down/up, not just pulling it, I'm also a pretty big and strong guy so it helps. It can take a great deal of force, and DO NOT pry under them and risk breaking the windshield. |
