Nothing is more annoying than pressing the lever to clean your windshield only to hear an empty wine and the sound of your wipers scrape across your windshield. Fortunately, refilling your vehicle’s windshield wiper fluid is super simple. Follow these quick steps to have a clean windshield in no time.
- Pick up a jug of windshield wiper fluid at your
local auto parts store, big box store, or even a gas station. They can usually
be purchased for around three dollars.
- Check your owner’s manual for any specific
instruction or suggestions regarding refilling your vehicle’s windshield wiper
fluid. Also look for instructions on locating the windshield wiper fluid
container.
- Pop the hood of your car and securely prop it
open.
- Locate your vehicle’s windshield wiper fluid
container. Almost every model features a large, brightly coloured plastic cap
with an image of a windshield engraved on it.
- Take off the lid and place it in a safe place.
- Open the jug of windshield wiper fluid. Using a
funnel, pour the fluid into the container until it reaches the fill line. If
you do not see a fill line, leave a couple of inches of space at the top of the
container.
- Replace the cap and lower your car’s hood.
- Turn on your vehicle and press the windshield
wiper fluid lever. Voila! Clean windshield.
