a. Repair (Optional)
NOTE
Steps 1 through 3 are an alternative repair for the windshield
wiper arm pivot. Repair can be left up to the discretion of the
commander.
For easy handling, use of an old wiper arm as a hole guide is
recommended. This will also protect the splined surface of the
pivot.
Use roll pin (5315-01-027-4759) for repair.
1.
Center punch side of wiper arm (1). Position wiper arm (1) so it is horizontal for drilling.
2.
Drill a 3/32-in. (2.4-mm) hole halfway through center shaft (2). Remove old wiper arm (1) and
continue drilling all the way through shaft (2) and cap.
3.
Using a small hammer or punch, drive roll pin (3) into hole until it is flush with the surface. Replace
original wiper arm (1).
