REAR





The rear wiper blade is secured by two integral latching pivot pins (1) to a receptacle in the small end at the tip of the rear wiper arm, and rests below the liftgate glass when the wiper is not in operation. The rear wiper blade consists of the following components:

- Superstructure (4) - The superstructure includes a molded black plastic bridge and plastic links with claw formations that grip the wiper blade element. Also included in this unit are the two latching pivot pins that secure the superstructure to the wiper arm.
- Element (2) - The wiper element or squeegee is the resilient rubber member of the wiper blade that contacts the glass.
- Flexor (3) - The flexor is a rigid metal component running along the length of each side of the wiper element where it is gripped by the claws of the superstructure.

The rear wiper blade is 34 centimeters (13.39 inches) long with a replaceable element (squeegee). The wiper blade superstructure cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective, worn, or damaged the entire wiper blade unit must be replaced.
