    Wondering how I remove the wiper arms? I couldn't find anything in my service manual. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ~ Tim

    Tim I'm sure they pry off, use a towel and slowly work around the gear with a small pry bar (take your time)

    .......or it could have a locking tab under the wheel that you need to pull back to let the arm come off or another type........

    Use a large flat blade screw driver turned sideways between the arm base and the wiper transmission itself (the base unit the wiper snaps on to)and wiggle back and forth a little,then do it to the opposite side,keep going from side to side til it pops off. You dont want to just pry from one side.

    Thanks for the advice guys, I sorta thought maybe it would just be prying them off, but didn't want to try until I check with the experts. ~ Tim
