Hi folks,

Is there some way to make the wiper springs stronger? (Push down on the windshield harder) I find in the winder I often can't see well because the wipers are too firm to be pushed flat on the windshield.

I carefully remove all ice from both the windshield and the blades, but it usually does not help when it's cold. I am using those flexible blades that have no pivot points. This occurred with the original blades as well. The blades themselves are quite new and it great shape.

I'm not sure if there's an adjustment I can do, or if maybe I need to replace the springs that pull the bars down towards the windshield.

Thanks for any info!

Chris

P.S. I am not a gearhead at all, but have done minor stuff like replace headlamps. I'm sure I can manage to fix this if someone gives me some direction

Greetings,

Can anyone explain how the headlight bulb is changed on a 2013 Edge SEL. (Driver's side) If you know of a video, that would be great. I did find one video, but the car in question is not the same as mine and didn't help.

I went to my local Walmart and Canadian tire to see if they stocked the part and neither did. I did find it at a nearby part's store for $38. I also called Ford to see what they wanted for the part/installation. They want $58 for the part, and they say they might have to remove my bumper to replace it, which would be an hour's labour. (Another $100)

If I can do this and save $100, that'd be great. Prior to my call to ford, I thought this was supposed to be a pretty simple procedure, but now I'm not so sure. Hoping for some feedback. Note that I have very little experience working on cars, so it'll have to be an easy job for me to do it.

Thanks!

Chris
