Hi All, I am a newbie with a problem. I turned on the wipers this morning before removing the heavy snow. Now one wiper is loose and won't work. Does anyone know of a quick fix as I have to travel tonight and it is supposed to rain? Fortunately it is the passenger side. I washed the windshield with Rain-X. Thanks, Annie

Can youtell me how to get at the nut to tighten the blade? My truck is a 2003 Frontier crew cab.
Thank-you

open the hood and right at the base of the wiper arm by the bottom of the windshield and take a 14mm wrench or ratchet and socket and turn the nut clockwise until its snug. its not hard you can probably take it down to any shop and they would probably do it for free cause its that easy it doesnt take no more then 3 minutes to do..
