1986 190d
I'm a 1st time MB owner as of 7days ago. and new to this forum.
I was replacing my Bosch wiper blade, I pulled up on the wiper arm to move it out away from the windshield, but now it seems to be locked in that position. I can't put it back down against the windshield. Is there some sort of release button? Idon't want to push to hard and break something. What am I doing wrong to put the arm back down on the windshield? Your help is appreciated! Thanks Jeff N |

Don't know what to tell ya, mine goes up and down from the windshield pretty smoothly. It's usually one of those things that I'm afraid it comes back down too easily. I have to make sure I don't bump it when it's up or it will come crashing down.

This is a single arm system, if that helps. I've taken off the old blade. I can see two springs, a U shaped wire that goes thru a metal clip between the two springs. But can't see what's keeping the arm from going back down.
Thoughts anyone? Jeff N |

Thanks for your reply. It told me that they just flop back down-same as other cars. and that there was no release button. I decided maybe it was just coroaded enough that it wouldn't buge. A little WD40 later, and with the same amount of effort as before, and the arm snapped sharply into its proper position. Thanks Jeff N |
