Title: Wiper linkage
Post by gost on Jan 31^st, 2010, 10:03am

Is the linkage between wipers just a push fit? Mine came adrift this morning, had a look, saw one link hanging loose, pushed it back and it seems to work :o But not swure if it will last

yea they just push back but they are just like a ball joint so id say its worn so expect it to come adrift again

Make sure your balls are not rusty :o, :o as that can wear the sockets. A clean with fine wet and dry will help.

If you'd made the Meet today that well known 'inventor' Tompion would have fixed it for you with a cable tie no doubt!!. ;D
