Why does my windshield wiper not wipe the center of the windshield?
The driver’s side one didn’t wipe well on the right (from drivers seat) side of the blade. I bought some new wiper blades and the passenger one works great! Unfortunately there is a bow upwards in the middle of the driver’s side where the blade doesn’t contact the windshield.
Why is my driver’s side wiper not working?
On the low setting, the driver’s side wiper would go too slow and the passenger’s side one would over take it, and they’d start to get stuck in each other. On the high setting the driver’s side wiper overshot again, but this time when slid it back onto the windshield it stopped working completely .
Where is the bow on my windshield wiper blade?

How does a windshield wiper work on a Toyota?
Typically, the wipers have a tapered, splined, die-cast attachment portion on the arm. This goes over the steel, splined shaft that projects from the cowl. A nut holds the arm on the shaft. The spline transmits the power from the shaft to the wiper arm. The tighter the nut, the tighter the splines engage, due to the taper of the design.

What should I do if my windshield wiper is making little contact?
If you have a steel windshield wiper arm and the wiper is experiencing little contact with the windshield, just bend the windshield arm about 4 inches away from the link tip (to assure you don’t mess up the connector). Bend it about 2 to 3 degrees (not too much) and thats it. my trucks been good for months now.
