Cant seem to wiggle off windshield wiper arms - more force? Or some trick?

[Adieu]

3d gen, popped the caps took off the nuts but cant seem to wiggle loose the arms... is there a trick, or just the teeth on teeth thing as usual?

Any sort of factory loctite or something possibly on there?

Use more force? Heat? Candlewax it?

Thx.

I used a battery terminal puller. A small 2 jaw puller works really well.

Nut off, pull wiper arm up, then wiggle back and forth. Use the small battery cable puller on it if necessary. Or any small two jaw puller.

Once you have used the battery post puller to get a set of wiper arms off, it will become your "goto" tool for all the wiper arms in the future. Especially as you get older. Considerably easier to twist a t handle vs jarring - prying away on the arm.

Not only that, but it's a pretty neat tool for pulling loose those pesky battery terminals.

That is sooo last year.

Only exceptionally well-endowed ladies are permitted to obsess over me for this long. (Case-by-case exceptions available for redheads, Japanese and Ukrainian girls)

LOL boredom

This forum has been so dead lately just trying to liven it up

Find it funny that someone didn't like the same advice given to them that they gave especially when the advice didn't pertain to the symptoms

Adieu, Bedrck is one of the resident genius's on electrical, and mechanical issues on these and other vehicles. We're just messing with you! Sometimes the forum gets a little silly when slow, or we get a new guy. Don't take it personally. They've done it to me too. Welcome to the forum, Bedrck can help out in areas of your SUV that no one else can, you just have to deal with his cocky ways sometimes. He gets bored easy.

Symptoms dont matter

ALL patients show significant response to a double dose of laxatives and sedatives
