REAR





The rear wiper arm is the rigid member located between the rear wiper motor output shaft that protrudes through the liftgate glass above the center of the liftgate glass opening and the wiper blade on the outside of the glass. The wiper arm is constructed of molded black plastic. A hinged pivot end is also molded plastic.

A molded black plastic nut cover (2) with two pivot pins on the back end and snap features on the end nearest the wiper blade fits over the wiper arm retaining nut to conceal the nut and mounting hole following wiper arm installation. The wiper arm hinge and tension spring are concealed on the underside of the wide end of the arm (1), while an integral latch feature (3) concealed on the underside of the narrow end of the wiper arm accepts the pivot pin of the matching molded plastic wiper blade unit.

The rear wiper arm cannot be adjusted or repaired. If damaged or ineffective, the entire wiper arm unit must be replaced.
