1990 740 GL Wiper Arm help!

Post by Guest! »

My wipers both worked until today where i noticed the drivers side arm was struggling to move, is there a way to tighten it or a place to buy one?

The reason I ask is that I don't see any visible way to remove or to tighten, no nuts or screws, just a pin that attaches to a spring.

when I flip the arm the whole thing is loose, the motor is working fine but it's just not attached to the wiper arm or is just loose.


Please help!

The lower end of the wiper arm is actually a cap hiding the bolt for the wiper arm. This cap can be opened by just pulling it up, and it will be rotating around the pin you are talking about. Under there, it is a bolt for fastening the arm to the shaft.
