blades chatter when operating the windshield
wipers, wax or other materials may be on the

with a washer solution or mild detergent. Your
windshield is clean if beads do not form when
rinsing with water.
Clean the blade by wiping it with a cloth soaked
in a washer solution or a mild detergent. Rinse
the blade with water. If your windshield is still
not clear after cleaning the blades and using
the wipers, replace the blades.
