This article will provide a comprehensive guide to the Hyundai i30 wiper system, including information on how to replace the wiper blades and troubleshoot common problems.

Wiper Blade Replacement

The wiper blades on the Hyundai i30 should be replaced every six to twelve months, or more often if they become damaged or worn. To replace the wiper blades, follow these steps:

1. Park the car on a level surface and turn off the engine.
2. Lift the wiper arms away from the windshield.
3. Push down on the tab at the base of the wiper blade and pull it straight out of the wiper arm.
4. Insert the new wiper blade into the wiper arm and push it in until it clicks into place.
5. Lower the wiper arms back onto the windshield.

Wiper Troubleshooting

If the wipers on your Hyundai i30 are not working properly, there are a few things you can check:

 Check the wiper fuse. The wiper fuse is located in the fuse box under the hood. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new one of the same amperage.
 Check the wiper motor. The wiper motor is located under the cowl panel at the base of the windshield. If the motor is not working, you will need to replace it.
 Check the wiper linkage. The wiper linkage is the mechanism that connects the wiper motor to the wiper arms. If the linkage is damaged or disconnected, the wipers will not work properly.
 Check the wiper blades. If the wiper blades are worn or damaged, they will not be able to clear the windshield properly. Replace the wiper blades if they are worn or damaged.

Additional Tips

 Use the wipers regularly. The best way to keep your wipers in good working condition is to use them regularly. This will help to prevent the wiper blades from becoming dry and cracked.
 Clean the windshield regularly. A dirty windshield can make it difficult for the wipers to clear the glass. Clean the windshield regularly with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
 Avoid using the wipers on a dry windshield. Using the wipers on a dry windshield can damage the wiper blades. Only use the wipers when there is rain, snow, or other debris on the windshield.
