Aston Martin 2013 Vantage Wind Screen Wipers

[NickFletcher]

Does anyone know how to change the wind screen wipers on a 2013 Vantage? I can change the passenger wiper but the drivers side is impossible as it gets caught by the bonnet.

Hi, there is a trick to have them in the upright position, check it out.

Windscreen Blade Replacement

To replace the windscreen wiper blades the wiper arms must be set at 90° to the vehicle (A).

1. Press and hold in buttons 2 and 6 (Infotainment keypad). Insert the vehicle key in the Ignition Control and move to position ‘II’ (ignition ON). This will manoeuvre the wiper blade arms to the 90° position. Return the vehicle key to position ‘0’.

2. Lift the wiper arm(s) up and remove the worn wiper blade(s). Install the new wiper blade(s) and lower the wiper arm(s).

3. After replacing the wiper blade either:
• Move the vehicle key back through to position ‘II’ to lower the
wiper arms. Return the vehicle key to position ‘0’ or remove
• Operate the wiper stalk - the wiper arms will complete the request and then park

Wiper stalk must be set to Off vs Auto for this to work.

That caught me out for ages.......
