disco_monkey79 33 Posted June 8 Hi Should the bit highlighted in blue (that engages with the wiper arm) rotate independently of the bit highlighted in purple? It seems not on mine, but that means it will be rubbing against the bodywork of the car while the wipers are in motion. I would have expected the flats (highlighted in orange - I am good at this computer stuff) are to hold the fat bit still so it can't rub?? Or am I being simple? Thanks (pic "borrowed" from the internet) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deano66 250 Posted June 8 Hi Disco_monkey79, The spindle(in blue) should rotate freely in the housing(in purple). It looks like the housing fits one way to the body. It sounds like the steel wiper spindle has seized to the alloy housing. Mount it in a vice & gently work it backwards & forwards with some WD40 or equivelant. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheffieldcortinacentre 764 Posted June 8 It will be seized, some gentle heat from a blow lamp will loosen it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
disco_monkey79 33 Posted June 8 Great, thanks. I figured that had to be the case. I will crack on. Thanks again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
