Removing wiper spindle

maverick451 · Sep 11, 2014

Hi

Ive been trying to remove one of the windscreen spindles because the thread has gone and the wiper arm slips and has even fallen off

but the grub screw is rusty and wont budge?

any ideas how I can change it??

Don't even try using wrench on an Allen key - I broke one off in the grub screw which made getting the little bastard off even harder.
