    In other words, if the windshield freezes, it is impossible to drive the vehicle if it does not melt. When the windshield freezes, the wipers freeze on the windshield as well. It still does not damage the wipers.

    Reaction wipers standing up will damage the wipers. The wiper is divided into two parts: the wiper arm and the wiper blade. Most of the cars are boneless wiper blades (some cars are boneless wiper blades with springs), when the wiper blades are erected, they will freeze directly in the air and cause deformation, accelerate aging, and scrape the glass.

    And naturally placed on the windshield, it is still the original curvature, and scraping the glass has no effect.

    If you park for a long time. It is possible that some people look strange and use their hands to pull the wiper arm. It may be wrenched, it may be pulled straight down, directly smashed into the glass, and the consequences you can imagine.

    After the wiper arm is erected, the wiper arm spring is stretched for a long time, which is easy to reduce the elasticity of the spring, so that the wiper blade and the windshield are not easy to stick, resulting in unclean scraping. In addition, the wind is also strong in snowy days, which will cause the wiper to swing, which will also reduce the elasticity of the spring, and may also affect the loosening of the linkage mechanism. cause damage to it.

    If the vehicle is not in use during the snow, there is no need to put the wipers up. If the snow is very thick, you have to wait until the snow on the front windshield clears before driving, and it doesn't matter if the wipers stand up or not.

    The reason why you have to put up the wipers when it snows is to prevent the wipers from getting frozen. There is a saying that "snow does not cool and snow is cold", especially at night, when the temperature will be lower, and the snow that melted before is likely to freeze the wipers.

    In the north, the winter in the north is unusually cold, the lowest may reach about minus 40 degrees, when parking, the engine is turned off, the wiper forgot to turn off, and the wiper also stopped working, then at a very low temperature, the wiper and the front windshield will freeze, the two will stick together, and the wiper freezes when it is started again, and forgets to turn off the wiper, which is very easy to burn out the motor.

    Forcefully opening the wiper after freezing will not only damage the wiper motor, but also tear the rubber on the surface of the wiper, making it ineffective, and even damage the wiper motor due to its inability to swing.

    Because the wipers are rubber, the front windshield can freeze in cold weather. If the wipers can't stand upright, they can easily get frozen by the glass, which can cause a lot of damage to the wipers. If you happen to be in a hurry, it will affect the trip.

    So, in this case, don't force the wipers on. If it freezes badly, the motor will burn out. If this happens to you, you can turn on the hot air in your car, blow the glass hard, and wait patiently for a few minutes for it to melt naturally.

    However, if you don't want the wipers to stand upright, you can put a layer of frost protection film on the front windshield or find a cloth to prevent the wipers from freezing on the front windshield. In fact, this method is also very desirable, but this situation is only suitable for snow-free weather.

    When the car is covered with snow and ice, the wipers are prone to freezing. At this time, if the owner forcibly starts, the rubber sheet on the wiper may be damaged, and in serious cases, the wiper motor may be directly burned. In fact, the way to deal with a frozen wiper is very simple.

    The main function of the car is to turn on the warm air after starting the car, blow the wind towards the windshield, and melt the frozen ice in the wipers with hot air. In addition, car owners should also pay attention to replacing antifreeze glass water in time to avoid the phenomenon of water nozzles freezing. On rainy days, the temperature is usually low and there will be a lot of snow on the front windshield.

    If the wipers don't stand up, our wipers are likely to freeze on the windshield. When using a car, we need to remove snow from the front windshield with the help of wipers. If we hadn't stood up at the time, the wipers would most likely freeze on the front windshield, and we would have had a hard time clearing the snow off the front windshield with the wipers.

    If the wipers are forcibly used, it is easy to cause serious consequences such as deformation of the wipers, damage to the rubber strips, and burning of the motor.

    In snowy weather, try to set up the wipers, but also pay attention when setting the wipers, because whenever we turn off the engine, the wipers stop at the lowest point, so it is impossible to set the wipers in this case. We need to adjust the wiper to maintenance mode so that it stops at the highest point, and then we can set the wiper. After the wipers are installed, you should make sure that the wipers do not bounce off on their own to avoid damaging the front windshield.

    We do not need to stand up completely, but we can find some soft materials such as cloth or plastic foam that separate the wipers from the front windshield so that the wipers do not freeze on the front windshield after snow.

    First of all, because the material of the wiper is basically rubber. Summer temperatures are already high, and rubber is a very heat-absorbing material. In the case of high temperatures, the wiper blades can easily deform.

    Winters are cooler, especially in the north. Snowflakes are flying, ice and snow are flying, and many times in the morning there is a layer of ice outside the car, so erect the wipers and the round lead section to prevent the wipers from freezing.

    In addition, in order to better protect the wipers in the winter heat. The best way to prevent the wipers from freezing on the front windshield due to bad winter weather in high temperatures is to attach the wipers to the front windshield. Separate.

    In addition, on snowy days, a little bit of snow and ice will stick to the wipers when they are erected, and they will freeze hard. If there is a high wind at this time, the wipers will bounce down and shatter the windshield. This situation is not unique.

    In order to protect our car when it is parked for a long time, it is best to park it in the underground parking lot. Different models have different methods of standing up the wipers, a few individual models of wipers are hidden under the front hood can not be erected, you can check the manual or consult the 4S shop must not be hard to move and damage the wiper arm.

    Secondly, the wipers cannot be watered directly with boiling water. Light ones can cause the wiper strips to deform, while heavy ones can directly cause the front windshield to crack. Therefore, thawing should not be rushed.

    Here we suggest that in winter, it is best to develop a good habit of putting up the wipers after work to prevent the wipers from being covered with snow or directly icing. Gadgets such as snow shovels help to clear snow. The way to thaw the wipers is to warm up the car in advance.

    When the water temperature rises, turn on the strong hot air mode and blow towards the front windshield. After the water freezes, use a wiper.

    It is more reliable to put the wipers up on snowy days to avoid rapid aging or even direct damage to the wipers. Another point to remind everyone is that when driving the next morning, if you find that the window is frozen, do not open the wipers directly, because the wipers may have frozen, and then the wiper motor may be lost directly when starting the windshield wiper.
