Honda Odyssey Change Wiper Blades - Replace Front Windshield Wiper Blades - Odyssey Van Blade Size 21-inch Wiper Blades Michelin: https://amzn.to/3G2znUm RainX: https://amzn.to/3BWJaZE 24-inch Wiper Blades Michelin: https://amzn.to/3pjAnO3 RainX: https://amzn.to/3vxeOdP In this video I'll show you how to change the front wipers on a 2004 Honda Odyssey. Start by raising the wiper arm on the driver's side. Different brands have different ways of securing the wiper blade onto the vehicle. On the first wiper, I can't remember the brand I installed but to remove this old wiper blade, there's a small plastic tab that needs to be pulled up. Now slide the wiper blade down towards the hood. It might take some light pressure but it should slide right down and then lift completely away from the arm. Now I'll do the same on the passenger side. Except on this side I know I have a RainX brand wiper blade on here. With the RainX wiper, the locking tab needs to be squeezed toward the wiper arm. And like before I'll slide the wiper blade down towards the hood. The replacement wiper blades I'm using are Michelin brand. On this 2004 Odyssey, the driver's side uses 24-inch and the passenger side uses a 21-inch blade. When I took these out of the package, these Michelin wiper blades seem a bit bulkier than any of the previous ones I've used and it has a flip up cover on the top. And speaking of the cover, it comes with a couple of other accessories that may or may not be needed depending on the vehicle. In my case, I actually needed the other cover for this installation and show you why in the video. To get these on, start with the wiper blade perpendicular to the wiper arm. Slip the end of the wiper arm into the opening of the blade. Then rotate it so it's parallel with the wiper arm. At this point, push the blade up and into the hook of the wiper arm. Make sure it's all the way into the hook. Normally the flip up cover on the Michelin wiper blades should just fold down and click into place. But it wasn't snapping in. That's when I realized I needed the larger cap that was included in the package. These are made of cheap plastic so they're flexible and not difficult to remove. But remember you may or may not need to replace the cap like I had to. On certain vehicles the original attached cover might work. These covers are just held in place by 2 plastic pins that fit into a couple of holes in the blade. When I have the correct cover on for my vehicle it locks on easily. Knowing I need to change the cap, I'll switch the one out for the passenger side before installing the blade. It's actually a bit easier to do it this way. And like before, position the blade perpendicular to the arm with the back of it facing the hood. Then, slip the arm into the center of the blade, rotate and pull it up into the hook in the wiper arm and snap the cover in place. Finally, the last step is to slide off the yellow protective covers on the rubber squeegee of the blade. I've heard stories of people forgetting this part and wondering why their new wiper blades aren't working correctly. So definitely don't leave these covers on! And now my van has a set of fresh wiper blades on and I'm ready for the rainy season!
