How to Replace Wiper Blades Guide:
Potential tools needed to replace wiper blades:

  • Flat blade screwdriver (small)
  • Small nosed pliers
  • Latex or vinyl gloves
  • Safety goggles
To replace wiper blades the actual action of replacing the blade is no big deal, it's the location of the blade down below the hood that can make it difficult though. Sometimes it helps to open the hood to gain access to the wiper blades. Other times it is helpful if the wiper blade is somewhere in the motion line of wiper action. The trick is to get the wiper to stop somewhere in the wiper arc. Turn the wipers to the on position and allow the wipers to start, and then shut the key off when the wiper has arrived in a desirable position on the windshield. To replace your wiper blades please follow the step by step instruction below. Also, watch the How to replace wiper blades video below to gain additional information. The method in which the wiper blades are attached will vary slightly.
  • Step 1: With the hood closed, turn the wipers on, when the wipers are in the middle of their arc turn the key to the off position. (Note: if this can't be done because of wiper condition and you want to avoid scratching the windshield please open your hood to gain access)
  • Step 2: Locate the mounting clips at the top pivot on the wiper blade
  • Step 3: Release the clip and remove the wiper arm
  • Step 4: Match the size of the old blade against the new blade to ensure proper fit and operation
  • Step 5: Reinstall the new wiper blade and recheck wiper operation

Common Problems:
  • Make sure the wiper blades are the same size as the original blades.
  • When replacing wiper blades not getting the blade on the mounting pin completely allowing the wiper arm to become dislodged and possibly causing damage to the windshield.
  • Using wiper blades after the blade has failed permanently damaging the windshield by craving scratches in the wiper arc.
  • Wiper blade can create a chattering noise when the blade is not properly balanced allowing the blade to "flop" back and forth as the wiper direction changes.

I hope help you with this (remember rated this help) Good luck.

The blades are changed as a whole unit, these days, and not just the blade.

Everything but the arm gets changed.

To replace rear wiper blade on nissan note 2010
Read the manual for my 2010 Note and it says to remove the old one simply rotate the wiper blade anti-clockwise until it comes free. I've done this and it feels like you're going to break it but it just comes free! then to fit the new one simply reverse the rotation. Simples.

Remone rear wiper blade 2006 nissan murano
You need to first remove the plastic cover (it just snaps on at the base & lifts upward) that hides the 10mm nut. Remove the nut & wiggle the arm a bit to remove. then you'll need to flip the wiper blade assy until the opening in it allows removal.

good luck

How to remove and replace the wiper blades on an 06 Murano
Me again. After looking at the blade for 15 minutes or so I did the following. Remove the wiper blade from vehicle (makes it easier to work on). There is a little tab under the blade near the end of the wiper blade arm. Press it and slide/pull the wiper blade toward you. Now when you look at the wiper it seems like its a sealed unit. Check the ends and you will see the rubber is flexibe enough to allow you to slid the "wiper" out ot the blade. You can get the replacement refill (the wiper) or a replacement wiper blade (the whole unit) from the Nissan dealer. Take the refill and slide into the blade assembly. Take your time. You might have to straighten the blade a little so that the refile lines up with the holding tabs in the blade. Looks impossible, but once you've done it you'll be surprised how simple it was to do......****

How to change wiper blades on 2007 Nissan Altima
Most wiper blades are replaced the same way as on this video. I have a 2006 Altima and it is.

Make sure you have the correct size wipers. You have 2 different sizes (lengths) so use the manual where you buy them and get the right ones.

Thanks for using Fixya.

How to change a 2006 Nissan Murano rear wiper balde
There are two ways. You can replace the rubber cartridge by simply removing any retaining clips from the end of the blade and sliding the old cartridge out, then sliding the new cartridge in and reclipping. Replacing the entire blade isn't that difficult either. Tilt the wiper back from the window so you can see where the blade pivots on a pin with clips holding the pin. Gently pry the wiper out from the clips on either side of the pin(you only need to pry on one) while pushing the blade in toward the wiper cover. It should pop out of the clips with a small amount of effort. You'll then have to weasel it out but it comes out pretty easily. Take off any adaptor that comes attached to the new 14" wiper and install.
