Removing rear wiper??

[danBoy]

I need to remove my rear wiper, I've undone the nut etc but the arm still won't come off, any ideas as don't want to do any damage to it lol

I had to by a cheap bearing puller in the end for about £10 I believe.

The shaft the arm fits onto is splinned and is fitted with an interferance fit. I tried everything other than this to get it off including ways I dare not mention on here

Fortunaterly the wiper motor, rear screen and paintwork all survived

Can't remember where I bought the tool from, and I'm less than half way through a 3000 word essay due in tomorrow so I haven't got time to find the thing and photograph it but if you can wait a couple of days I will, or does anyone else have something similar?

Alternatively northampton is not a million miles away, if you were ever coming in this direction, I'd be happy to come part of the way to meet you. Just a thought.

what about putting some cloth on your boot then two small peices of wood then carfully lever with a screw driver, REMEMBER carfully!

yep, a small window wiper puller is needed.. it it still refuses to come off, then i've got one you could use...

Finally managed to fit my later rear wiper arm and flatblade, ordered up a wiper removal tool showing in stock at one of our other branches at work and my boss let me 'borrow' it and put it back into stock which was nice
