Windshield wiper blades for VAZ 2109 - size and which ones to choose

Size of windshield wiper blades on VAZ 2108, 2109, 21099, 2110, 2111 and 2112 cars

All models of cars produced by the AvtoVAZ automobile concern indicated in the title of this section of the article are the progenitors of the Lada Samara series. It is for this reason that their front wipers are symmetrical, just like those of their descendants, and have a length of 53 centimeters

The main functional task of windshield wiper blades is to ensure systematic and effective cleaning of the windshield and rear window of the car from snow, rain, and various contaminants. Their obvious advantage is the ability to take into account the curvature of the windshield shape and the compactness of the mount itself.

Wipers of almost all brands of cars of the VAZ family, including wipers on the VAZ 2114, have several operating modes. The windshield wiper operates in four modes:

• intermittent, with a short pause;
• first speed (slow);
• second speed (accelerated);
• cleaning with washer.

The rear wiper operates in two modes:

• cleaning without washer;
• simultaneous cleaning with washer.

Correct selection of wipers by size for VAZ 2114

To avoid unwanted problems during vehicle operation, experts recommend annual maintenance and, if necessary, replacing the brushes on the VAZ 2114 with ones compatible with the specific brand of car.

Factory symmetrical VAZ 2114 auto wipers have a standard length on each side of the windshield - 51 cm.

But it is possible to supply brushes of other sizes:

• driver's side – 53 cm;
• and on the passenger side - 51 cm.

But if you install 53 cm brushes on both sides, water flows in a thin stream in the middle of the windshield.

On the rear window of this model, the blade size is 30 cm, although some car enthusiasts install 33 cm and this does not create any additional problems. Installing a rear wiper 40 cm long will require expanding the stroke limit. But to ensure that the windshield wiper does not go too low, and also does not run into the glass seals: the motor is removed, then put back, with the obligatory displacement of a couple of teeth.

Dimensions

The driver and passenger side brush lengths are different. The difference is small - only 20 mm. If possible, avoid installing brushes of the same length. Otherwise, a path of water will form in the middle of the windshield during rain. Which will lead to a significant deterioration in visibility. The rear window is equipped with a 300 mm long brush.

The rear hemisphere allows for the installation of a brush 400 mm long. In this case, the lower part of the window will not be affected. But you will have to limit the stroke of the brush on the gearbox. To do this, you need to disassemble the motor that drives the brush.

Original articles

It will no longer be possible to find original parts for this car produced by AvtoVAZ. It is only important to note: in the assortment offered by stores, it will not be difficult to choose a high-quality analogue. In the last years of car production, the manufacturer no longer made brushes on its own. Ready-made solutions were purchased from Bosch.

Original articles used back in the Soviet Union:

Replacement options

There are quite a lot of companies involved in the production and sale of various brushes. Including for the VAZ 2109. When choosing, you should give preference to well-established manufacturers. But it is important to remember: there are always many counterfeits of well-known brands. You should carefully inspect the boxes before purchasing. This will avoid purchasing a fake.

All presented brushes are divided into 4 main categories:

• frame;
• frameless;
• hybrid;
• winter.

Frame

Designated as classic. They are distinguished by their low price and simple design. The strength of such products is great. But a serious disadvantage is the poor aerodynamic shape. When air resistance occurs when driving at speeds over 100 km/h, the brush rises slightly above the glass surface. Which leads to a decrease in the contact area. Deterioration in the degree of glass cleaning.

Frameless

Brushes of this type do not have the disadvantages of classic models. They have an optimal aerodynamic shape and look aesthetically pleasing. At the same time easy to install. The only negative: low strength. At the same time, the cost is relatively low.

Hybrid

Hybrid – a design that has all the advantages of classic and frameless brushes. Today this is the best option. Low cost, coupled with low aerodynamic resistance and good cleaning properties, makes their use convenient and effective. The brush itself is made of a single piece of rubber. There is a frame inside. Some modifications are equipped with a spoiler. Which makes the brush even more streamlined.

Winter

Winter wipers are distinguished by their elasticity - even at sub-zero temperatures they clean the glass well. The effect is achieved by adding rubber to the rubber composition. It retains its flexibility regardless of the ambient temperature. As a result, its cleaning qualities do not change in any way.

When choosing new wipers, take into account:

• mode of operation of the vehicle;
• maximum driving speed;
• the region in which the car is located.

If the car is used in the Far North, then it is advisable to purchase winter brushes. Driving at speeds over 100 km/h - the windshield will only be cleaned with the proper aerodynamic shape (frameless, hybrid blades). If you have no experience, you should contact a consultant.

Some drivers purchase several pairs of brushes at once:

• for summer;
• for winter;
• for long trips and highway driving.

It is very comfortable. Allows you to avoid unnecessary expenses. Spare parts are always available.

Modern auto wipers VAZ 2114

Leading manufacturers especially recommend modern frameless brushes VAZ 2114 to car enthusiasts.

Their advantageous feature:

• more dense, uniform pressure to the glass;
• less restriction of field of view for the driver;
• high-quality cleansing without streaks in both directions;
• no noise from air flow.

Helpful advice. Of great importance for the safe movement of the VAZ 2114 is the exact match of the brush sizes required by the manufacturer for the corresponding type of car. This is especially important in snowy winter, when the outline of the road is practically invisible.

Although frameless wipers have a slightly shorter service life, they are considered the best, and therefore cost a little more.

Find out the type of fastening

To install new wipers, you need to know how to attach them to the arm. The most common is a hook . It is used on most domestic and foreign cars, for example, on VAZ models starting from the tenth generation. The same wipers are used on Hyndai, Kia, Toyota, Daewoo, etc. It is important to remember that the hook size may vary. You can remove the windshield wiper and measure it. The most popular sizes: 9x3 and 9x4 mm. Another type of fastening is a pin lock , found, for example, on classics.

Foreign cars have more varied fastenings, because large concerns are trying to make most of the spare parts unique. Here are some of them:

• button – found on Volvo, Renault, Ford, Citroen, VW;
• side pin - present in car models starting from 2005: VW Jetta and Passat, BMW 3, some Peugeot, Volvo, Mercedes models;
• side clamp - found mainly in European models Audi, Fiat, Saab, Opel;
• bayonet lock - found on Renault models since 2004, as well as on Saab models.

These and other mounting options are shown in the images.

Types of wiper mounts

Many manufacturers of car windshield wipers include several fasteners in the kit so that the buyer does not have problems with installation. For example, one set of wipers will fit both Polo sedan and Kalina.

Device design

First, let's try to figure out how the windshield wiper circuit on a VAZ works and what components form a single unit called a wiper.

Main types of wipers

Where once there was only one type of windshield wiper or wiper blade, today such products come in many shapes, types and sizes. From the factory, the VAZ-2107 is equipped with standard wipers, the service life of which does not exceed 20 thousand kilometers. Of course, it is wrong to tie brushes to the mileage of the car, so it is necessary to change products when they do not cope with their main task.

The wiper itself is a structure based on a body and a working element. The working element is the windshield wiper, and the housing is needed to support this structure. Although today the following types of wipers can be installed on the VAZ-2107:

• Frame;
• Without frame;
• Hybrid.

In fact, they are all universal, with the exception of modern foreign cars, in which one element differs in size from the other. Let's see how these types of brushes differ from each other.

Nuances when choosing wipers

What should you pay attention to when choosing windshield wipers? • First of all, their quality is determined by the color of the tape and the uniformity of texture. • No burrs on rubber blades

• No burrs on rubber blades.

• Working edges must be normal, without rounding.

• Frame models must ensure free movement of the tape in the clamps even when the frame is bent.

• The brush blade is made of elastic rubber.

• Independent express tests of the most popular sizes of windshield wipers from different manufacturers and a wide price range will also help in choosing wipers.

Frost and salt in winter, heat and ultraviolet rays in summer, and even a car wash shorten the service life of wipers - the rubber wears out and becomes dull.

The first and main reason indicating the need to replace windshield wipers is poor cleaning of the windshield by the wiper, as well as its mechanical damage, leading to abnormal operation.

Types of windshield wipers

It will not be difficult to replace original brushes with wipers from other manufacturers, since their size range is completely identical. They differ only in the type of construction:

• Frame;
• Frameless;
• Hybrid;
• Winter.

Frame

These are classic wipers on a metal frame with a high level of strength. However, the aerodynamic characteristics at high speed are reduced due to their “metallic” heaviness. Hence the budget cost.

Frameless

These wipers fit tightly to the glass due to low air resistance, which immediately improves aerodynamic performance. For lovers of high speed, such brushes will be the optimal solution.

Their cost is higher than the previous ones, but there is a drawback: made without a frame, they have low strength and are therefore easily deformed.

Hybrid

Based on the name, they have similar characteristics of frame and frameless counterparts. They are quite durable and adhere well to the glass at high speed. They are usually made with a spoiler that allows air flow to go around the brush and not impair aerodynamics. The cost is much higher than its predecessors

Winter

These windshield wipers are made with the addition of rubber, which allows them to be flexible in any weather. In terms of price, they are close to hybrid ones.

If the car is driven in a warm climate and rarely accelerates over 120 km/h, inexpensive frame wipers are suitable for it. In regions with low temperatures and frequent precipitation, the machine will have to be equipped with hybrid or winter brushes.

Let's discuss windshield wiper blades

Let's discuss here who uses what kind of windshield wiper blades, their sizes and how they feel during operation. You can also discuss leashes for brushes.

Since I started it myself, I’ll probably start. Today I installed frameless brushes from AIDO, model AD-919 50C. The kit includes adapters for various leashes. The rubber bands are pleasant to the touch, while they are new, they rub perfectly (compared to the old ones). They wipe 99% of the area of ​​their stroke (maybe they will rub in over time). Leashes with a U-shaped tip. On the back of the boat (I have 93) the leash (an ordinary straight one with a pimp) is bent into a snug in one place and there is also a frameless brush for 50 (no name). After warming up the rear window, it cleans 90% of its travel area.

I will post photos here if possible.

Brushes 55, I wore rubber bands on the holders so that snow wouldn’t get stuck in the spring and freeze, now I’m used to it and will leave them for the summer too. But I can’t talk about companies, they’re still consumables. While the new ones run clean, then they streak, then almost scratch. To extend their service life, you should not run them dry or on ice. If the edge becomes wavy, it will streak and need to be replaced.

I set the rear brush to 50, bent the leash imperceptibly and, as intended, it cleans normally. But in the harsh reality, there is not enough strength to clear the snow after parking. M.b. The motor is already dying, but with the 35 brush there was no such problem. And when there is a lot of dirt, you have to pour out half a liter of water to clean the glass without streaks. The motor there is weak, but it’s still alive, so it will continue to work.

I would like to touch on one more problem with regular wipers. At a speed of more than a hundred, they begin to work worse, due to the oncoming flow. At 140, they no longer clean anything, because... They do not fit tightly enough to the glass. It can be treated with overlays on the holders, but they spoil the appearance. M.b. Are there other tricks?

How to find out?

The dimensions of brushes for many popular machine models are shown in the tables above. But still, millions of people drive other cars. And they need additional information for selection. If the car owner bought the brushes on his own before, then he might still have a box on which the necessary parameters are indicated. But you need to understand that in some cases the size is given in both millimeters and inches.

When you go to a store, they will immediately understand what’s going on. However, often the box is not retained or the accessory that was originally installed on the car at the factory has to be changed. In this case, you can go to the store, remove the wiper and present it to the seller, or measure the part yourself; Just remember to measure both brushes.

Another way out of the situation is to search for information on a specific car model. It can be found on the manufacturer’s official website and on forums.

How to maintain and replace brushes?

To replace the wiper, simply fold the rocker arm and unscrew the rubber. The frame structure itself must be lubricated with silicone oil.

Fastening is carried out directly on the beam.

Caring for your brush consists solely of timely cleaning of salts and derivatives of the washing liquid (dyes may remain after it - in cheap options). This should be done using a special solvent or citric acid solution (let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then wipe thoroughly with a cloth). If even after the brush doesn't usually clean the glass, it's time to replace it because it's literally wearing out on the ground. In this case, the clamping force decreases and the shape of the hand may differ from the original.

Windshield wiper device for VAZ 2109 (2108, 21099)

Let's look at how the windshield cleaner of a VAZ 2109 (2108, 21099) car works.
Such information will help to quickly and accurately diagnose any malfunction associated with the operation of the wipers. For example, “why the intermittent wipers don’t work,” or “why the wipers don’t work at all.”

Windshield cleaner device for VAZ 2109 (2108, 21099)

The windshield cleaner for VAZ 2108, 21081, 21083, 2109, 21091, 21093, 21099 cars consists of two parts: levers with brushes and a crank, and a gearbox with an electric motor (gearmotor). Here is their device in pictures.

— Windshield wiper arms with crank (“wipers”)

The levers, leads and crank are interconnected by hinges, which allows them to move and work even with some non-parallelism. The swing angle of the leads is about 85°. The hinges consist of two metal-ceramic liners, impregnated with oil, inside the housing. The liners are released by a spring.

— Wiper gearbox

The gearbox consists of a housing, a plastic cover and a protective cap. A plastic gearbox gear is installed inside the housing, which meshes with the splines of the armature shaft of the wiper motor. The gear ratio is 74 to 1.

Contact stands with soldered wires are installed on the plastic panel. A plate with switch contacts is attached to them. It is designed to stop the electric motor when the brushes are in the lower position. The protrusion of the cam at this moment presses the plate away from the upper pillar and closes it with the lower one.

— Wiper motor

Two permanent magnets in the shape of half rings are fixed in the electric motor housing. The magnets and housing are the stator of the electric motor. The armature of an electric motor (rotor) consists of a shaft, a core and a commutator. The winding is placed in the grooves of the core. It is lined with cardboard for insulation. The winding leads are soldered to the collector plates. The armature shaft rotates in a ball bearing (at the bottom of the housing) and a cermet bushing (in the cover).

Notes and additions

— To prevent overloading of the electric motor when the brushes freeze to the glass, a reusable thermobimetallic fuse is connected to the electric motor.

— The intermittent operation of the purifier is ensured by a special relay type 52.3747 installed in the fuse and relay mounting block. It consists of an electronic circuit and an electromagnetic actuator.
