Windshield wiper chatter is a common issue faced by many drivers, and it is usually more noticeable during rain or car washes. BAOYI factory offers several effective solutions. Here are some tips to resolve wiper chatter:
First, check if the wiper blades are worn or damaged. Aging rubber on wiper blades can lead to uneven wiping and cause chatter. If you notice cracks or hardening in the rubber, it’s advisable to replace the wiper blades. Next, ensure there are no foreign objects between the wiper arms and blades. Leaves, dust, or ice can obstruct the wiper’s smooth movement, leading to chatter.
Additionally, check the tension of the wiper arms. If the spring in the wiper arm is no longer elastic or is improperly installed, it can cause uneven contact with the windshield. Adjusting the arm’s tension or reinstalling it can help. Also, make sure the windshield surface is clean, as dirt and grease can affect wiper performance. Regularly cleaning the windshield can prevent these issues.
Another common cause is the resting position of the wiper arms. This is especially common in dry areas where the wipers are not used for a long time. After use, whether to clean the windshield or because of precipitation, the wipers return to the parked position at the bottom of the windshield, and the rubber wiper will bend slightly. Since it stays there for a long time and is exposed to high temperatures, the rubber fatigues and hardens in that position. The solution is to find a small rubber ball and stick it under the wiper arm when the wiper is in the parked position to lift it off the glass when it is stored for a long time. If you don't use the car for a long time, you can use this little trick, but it is not practical for daily driving.
Finally, examine the wiper motor’s operation. A malfunctioning motor can result in unstable wiper movement, leading to chatter. If there are motor issues, it’s best to consult a professional for repair or replacement.
By following these methods, drivers can effectively address wiper chatter and maintain clear visibility. BAOYI factory is committed to providing high-quality wipers and related services to help you resolve various wiper issues and ensure your driving safety.
