Hi! I am Andrew Davidson, master technician from Currys Auto Service. Now, I am going to show you how to check your wiper blades. Okay, something that a lot of people overlook are their wiper blades. At least until you get in the big rainstorm and then you realize you need wiper blades. So, while you are under the hood it is good idea to take a look at your wipers. If you see the tearing on the edge or the wipers are completely laying on their side, obviously they need replacement. wipers need to be replaced more than you would think. These on this car look to be okay, if they clear your window properly, they are probably okay but you dont to want to find that out in the rainstorm that your wipers are no good. So, take a good look at them, any cracking, anytime, any of these ribs in between, these little springs and clips in there could be broken. Just take a good look at them and make sure that they appear to be in pretty good shape, it is a pretty simple job on most cars if you want to change out your wipers and that is how you check your wiper blades.
