How to Change the Wiper Blades on a Cadillac SRX

A Cadillac SRX features a 21 inch wiper blade on the driver's side, and a 20 inch blade on the passenger's side. Replacement blades are easy to find, as they do not need to be Cadillac-specific parts. Just about every automotive parts store and discount store with a car products section carries replacement wipers. Once you've purchased the new blades, putting them onto the vehicle will take only a few minutes.

  • Raise the driver's side wiper blade off of the SRX's windshield.

  • Undo the safety clip on the wiper blade's center connection. This clip helps secure the wiper blade to the SRX's wiper arm.

  • Pull the wiper blade out of the hook at the end of the SRX's wiper arm.

  • Fit the hook at the end of the SRX's wiper arm into the wiper blade and pull it into place. You will hear a single "click" or "snap" sound. This is the safety clip engaging. When you hear the "click," you know the wiper blade is secured onto the arm.

  • Lower the driver's side wiper to the SRX's windshield Repeat the process with the remaining passenger's side 20 inch blade.
