Gm motor vehicle have a break away characteristic. Its meant use is that if the wipers are frozen to the windshield and you turn on the wipers it wont deplete the wiper motor or destroy the linkage. usually cases they are going to disengage on their very own. try shifting the wiper lower back and forth by way of hand and spot if it locks lower back in. If that does no longer restore it, the linkage has possibly popped loose and you will could desire to get rid of the canopy with the intention to the two placed the linkage lower back jointly or tighten the nut on the top of the wiper linkage on the wiper motor the place it incredibly is slipping. those are the main worry-unfastened wiper linkage issues on your type
It is held on by just the one nut on top. It will probably be tough to get off. Be careful prying you dont want to crack your windshield. You can go to an auto parts store and by a wiper arm puller for a few dollars, they work pretty good.
Some wiper arms have a locking tab at their base.You have to lift the wiper arm all the way up to unlock it.Others are just a pain to get off.You have to use a small pry bar to pry it off.Put a board under the pry bar so you don't crack the windshield.
