[MBZ] 300SDL, How is the headlight wiper removed?

2008-03-15 Thread Harry Watkins
I have looked in every section of the FSM that I thought it would be
covered.  There are three pages discribing how it works.  I need to replace
my headlight doors and those instructions only say to remove the headlight
cleaning wiper.

I would never drive nor ride in a car that did not have wipers to clean the
headlights, would you?

TIA

Harry

I don't know, exactly.  I know it pivots away from the glass,
on a kind of snap joint.

Easy.

If you look closely at the headlight wiper where it is
mounted on the motor shaft, you'll notice that the
metal cover that matches the arm is hinged.  If you
carefully pry the cover up, you'll find a 10mm nut on
the end of the motor shaft.  Take the nut off and the
arm will come off, much like a regular windshield
wiper arm does.

Sorry, can't help there...

Seeing as how I have never had a car with headlight wipers, I guess the
answer to your question is yes, I would ride in a car without headlight
wipers.

Flip forward, unscrew the nut, pull the arm off the shaft.

Thanks guys, its sure easy when you get the right information.  I replaced
both headlight doors.

I snipped some strips of metal from an old rusty rocker panel and used it to
weld some gaps and cracks inside and outside of my microwave oven.

Time for breakfast.
