Front wipers

The dimensions of the windshield wipers on the VAZ 2114 are 51 cm . But it is also possible to install a 53 cm long windshield wiper on the driver’s side, while only a standard size wiper must be installed on the passenger’s side.

Installing identical windshield wipers on both sides will result in the formation of a streak of flowing water in the middle of the glass.

If the size of the windshield wiper blades on a VAZ 2114 is significantly larger than recommended, this will lead to some inconvenience. They will not be able to clean glass well. Also, the windshield wiper can extend a few mm onto the rubber seals during operation, which is not very convenient. Smaller wipers will not clean the windshield effectively because the cleaning surface area will be reduced.

Replacement

The replacement process is relatively simple. Doesn't cause any problems. It includes the following main steps:

it is necessary to place the brush in a vertical position - perpendicular to the wind stack (it must be fixed);
Next, the plastic fastener is compressed on both sides - after which the brush just needs to be pulled towards the hood.

If everything is done correctly, the clamp should come apart without much effort. After which you can begin installing the new wiper. Plastic clamps and fasteners are made of fairly fragile plastic. Even famous brands are guilty of this. Therefore, all actions must be performed carefully, without sudden movements. Otherwise, small parts may be damaged. This will cause installation to fail. You will have to purchase new fasteners.

Rear wipers

The size of the rear wiper on the VAZ 2114 is 30 cm . You can also buy a windshield wiper with a length of 33 cm and even 40 cm.

The main thing is that it does not touch the rubber seal during operation. When installing longer brushes, it may be necessary to adjust their stroke by installing a motor offset by several teeth.

Symptoms of malfunction

To understand a broken windshield wiper, let's look at what signs it may have.

Symptoms of a malfunction may include the following:

when the device is turned on, it does not respond at all (the relay does not click, the electric motor does not work);
the relay is triggered, but the engine does not turn on;
both the relay and the motor work, but the hands do not move or do not move in the wrong direction;
the intermittent mode of the VAZ-2109 windshield wipers does not work;
the engine does not stop in intermittent mode;
The wipers are slow.

Types of windshield wipers for VAZ 2114

Windshield wiper blades for the “fourteenth”, as for all other cars, are framed, frameless and hybrid . There is also a winter version of brushes. Different types of windshield wipers differ in design and cost.

For the “fourteenth” you can choose brushes of any type. The required sizes are available from many manufacturers.

Frame

These wipers on the VAZ 2114 have a special frame. It provides a good fit to the glass. This allows you to clean its surface well. These brushes can be replaced with cleaning tapes.

But in cold weather, such windshield wipers become very hard and freeze. Therefore, some time must pass for the brushes to warm up and begin to clean normally again. Moreover, their design seems outdated.

These windshield wipers are produced by many brands. They are usually cheaper than other types of brushes. Therefore, many drivers prefer this type of glass cleaner.

Frameless

A frameless wiper does not have a frame. This provides a more attractive appearance. But cheap products usually wear out quickly. If selected incorrectly, they may press poorly against the glass, preventing it from being properly cleaned. Therefore, when purchasing, you need to take into account the size of the glass and the brand of the machine. Expensive wipers do not have this drawback. In addition, they last a little longer. But their cost is high compared to high-quality frame brushes.

Hybrid

This type of wipers appeared on sale relatively recently. They have a small frame. These windshield wipers are good at removing dirt. They often last quite a long time, but they are not cheap.

Now this type of product is not yet found in all auto stores. Moreover, their choice is still small. Therefore, it can be difficult to choose brush sizes for a specific car.

Winter

Winter ones are a special type of frame wipers, in which the rocker arms are hidden in a special plastic casing. This design was created specifically for winter. It allows the brushes not to freeze, which ensures their excellent mobility even in severe frost. Their downside is their poor fit to the windshield when driving at high speed.

Hybrid

These analogues stand out for their compact frame, which is conveniently hidden under the casing. They are characterized by a good aerodynamic effect, as well as a special design that creates pressure on the glass. Thanks to this, the rubber blades also fit tightly. They use natural rubber inserts and other materials that are highly practical.

Of course, the price of such windshield wipers differs significantly. But they are indispensable for those cars that stand out with a large convex “lobovukha”. They are able to maintain the geometric proportions of their working edges for a long time, and the rubber is designed to operate under temperature fluctuations.

Wipers for VAZ 2114: choosing the right size

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.

The drive is acting up

On very old cars, the windshield wiper drive system contributes to the unsatisfactory performance of the wipers. Most often, the joints of the levers turn out to be worn out, due to which the brushes can “fly out” beyond the glass, run into the seal, hang in extreme positions, jam when starting, and “park” after turning off at any point in their stroke. The problems of a “tired” drive motor are not so noticeable: the brushes become slow, as if sleepy, and in winter they cannot cope with large amounts of snow. The correct solution to windshield wiper drive problems with virtually no options is replacement. Although, if you wish, you will find a craftsman who will undertake to repair it.

Optimal size of wiper blades (windshield wipers) VAZ

Long-term use of windshield wipers leads to significant wear, which is reflected in the inadequate performance of their functions.

The first signs that you need to replace wipers of the appropriate size are:

The appearance of streaks on the windshield and rear window due to several movements of the windshield wiper.
The work of the wipers is accompanied by creaking and grinding noises.
Deformed rubber tips.

Very important! If you do not pay due attention to the condition and operation of the wipers in a timely manner and do not promptly replace unsuitable brushes with a similar size, then during snowfall and heavy rain, the visibility of the road surface is greatly reduced. This significantly slows down the driver’s reaction, which can lead to an emergency situation affecting the safety of both the driver, passengers, and other road users.

What happens if you choose the wrong brush size?

When choosing auto windshield wipers for a VAZ, it is imperative to pay due attention to their size, since a deviation of even 10-15 mm is very important.

Even a slightly increased brush size, in comparison with the manufacturer’s recommendations, can contribute to the manifestation of negative aspects during operation, namely:

the glass is poorly cleaned even after prolonged operation of the brushes - the incorrect length of the brushes significantly reduces the clamping force of the wiper directly on the glass, so the quality of its cleaning will decrease, this is especially noticeable when using frameless windshield wipers;
such wipers can touch the rubber seal on the windshield, thereby causing damage to it, while they come off the working surface, leave gaps with uncleaned stripes and do not provide high-quality cleaning;
extended windshield wipers will touch each other, which means they can block their operation and deprive the driver of the required field of view on the highway at the wrong time;
a large brush sometimes even touches the edge of the driver's door, causing some damage to the body of the car, and by knocking on the pillar, it simply irritates the driver and distracts from the situation on the road.

The size of the brush on the VAZ 2114 that is too small than what is provided by the manufacturer significantly reduces the cleaning efficiency, as it limits the area of glass cleaning (the central part of the windshield will not be captured by the brushes). In addition, during rain, the short length of the wipers favors the appearance of flowing water and the appearance of islands and streaks of dirt.

What's better? Frame or frameless?

In fact, everyone chooses their own, which is why long conversations are held on forums where they do not find a definite answer. We, in turn, will not claim that one or the other is better, we will simply tell you the advantages of one over the other, and you can choose for yourself. Agreed? Then let's go!

Frame wipers

Frame wipers are inferior in appearance, but have greater pressing force against the windshield due to the structure of the rocker arms, which undoubtedly affects the quality of glass cleaning for the better.

But the complex system of rocker arms also has a negative aspect: in winter, in snowy weather, the rocker arms are covered with ice, the wiper becomes motionless and oaky - accordingly, the brushes are poorly cleaned. There is only one way out of this - to warm it up. standing in the cold, clear the ice from the wipers until the rocker arms move freely.

Therefore, for winter they came up with frame wipers with closed rocker arms. In other words, the entire skeleton of the wiper is hidden in a plastic casing, where snow and moisture do not penetrate - accordingly, the rocker arms are always movable and the wiper cleans well. But this system also has a small drawback - at high speed, due to the “winged” structure of such wipers, the downforce on the windshield noticeably drops, which negatively affects the quality of glass cleaning.

Another advantage over frameless ones is the ability to change cleaning tapes. In frameless wipers, the tape does not change, but the brush assembly does.

Frameless wipers

The appearance of these wipers blends harmoniously with any car rather than the frame frame skeleton.

These economy segment wipers must be selected according to the make of the car, because Each car has its own windshield shape, and accordingly, the windshield wiper has its own bend. Therefore, with cheap wipers, it often happens that the brush does not press well on the passenger side, and therefore the dirt is not cleaned. There is nothing you can do about such brushes, just replace them with quality ones. The premium segment promises us to work perfectly on any car, the main thing is to choose the length, but the price of such brushes is 1000 rubles.

Another advantage of frameless ones is that they are easy to clean from ice in winter; just bend the wipers a couple of times and all the ice will fall off.

Another advantage of such wipers is good aerodynamics. Those. their downforce does not decrease as speed increases.

I hope everything has become clear to you and you will make the right choice. We also recommend that you read the article: Which windshield wiper blades should you choose? In it you will learn how to choose the right brushes, what you need to know, and which companies you should give preference to.

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.

A very important factor in safety and comfort while driving a car is the removal of dirt and water from rain from the rear window. The rear wiper of the VAZ 2114, with a speed regulator, which is located inside the car, turning in both directions, copes with its functional tasks perfectly.

Frame

Frame brushes are a skeleton to which a cleaning rubber band is attached. In other words, rocker arms extend from the wiper arm (there are 2, 3, 4 of them depending on the model), to which a cleaning tape is attached, which is in free circulation (can move forward and backward). Each rocker arm is movable, so it fits tightly to the glass.

Thanks to this design, it is not necessary to replace the entire brushes; you can only get by by replacing the cleaning tape. This is a plus, because its cost compared to a set of new wipers is noticeably different in favor of the former.

What size are the wipers on the VAZ-2114

Any part for a car must be selected correctly. Washers in this case are no exception. Their choice also needs to be approached responsibly so that there are no problems during operation. It is important that they match the size of the machine, otherwise there is a risk that the clamping force will drop, resulting in a decrease in the quality of cleaning. The excessively large size of these products can cause them to “climb” onto the sealing rubber during operation, which will reduce the surface area that is in contact with the wipers. And too small ones, due to the limited cleaning area, will significantly reduce the effectiveness of the brushes. Thus, the size of the windshield wipers is important, so when choosing, it is important to pay attention to this nuance.

Engine does not stop intermittently

Intermittent mode differs from the others in that at the end of each cycle the wipers stop in their original position. This is achieved by moving a cam located at the rear end of the gearbox shaft. It closes and opens the moving contact of the windshield wiper limit switch. Irregularities in the operation of wipers in intermittent mode are usually associated with a malfunction: wear, damage. In addition, the problem may be in the patch plate or its contacts.

What kind of windshield wiper should be on a VAZ-2114

VAZ 2113, 2114 and 2115 cars have factory windshield wipers with a length of 51 cm. If replacement is necessary, you can use wipers whose length is 53 cm. In this case, you must leave a standard size blade on the passenger side. It is noteworthy that these cars also have rear wipers of the following sizes:

They are generally 30 cm long (11-12 in inches).
It is possible to replace it with 33 cm.
Products 40 cm long are also suitable, but for this you will need to move several teeth on the electric motor brush.

It should be noted that all cars from the AvtoVAZ plant are the progenitors of the Lada Samara, therefore they have symmetrical washers, like their descendants, and their average length is 53 cm.

Size of brushes for Lada Kalina, Priora, Granta cars

The wipers on these cars are not symmetrical. On the driver's side they are 60 cm long, and on the passenger side - 40 cm. It is noteworthy that in this case the wipers cannot be replaced with larger ones. The rear clear has a length of 36 cm and also does not change.

As for Lada Priora cars, their wipers are also not the same. On the driver's side they are 53 cm long, and on the passenger side - 50 cm. In this case, only passenger options are allowed to be changed. Those who wish can use smaller ones, 48 cm long, or larger ones - 51 cm. As for the rear wiper, in this case it is smaller than that of the Lada Kalina - 33 cm.

Lada Granta cars have the same cleaners as the Lada Kalina. So the dimensions are as follows:

driver's brushes – 60 cm;
passenger – 40 cm.

To summarize, we note that windshield wipers for cars are very important, especially in winter, when it snows and the road is practically invisible. They are also needed during rain, in order to clean the windows and not interfere with visibility on the road. No car is produced without these devices. In general, glass cleaners on modern cars do not differ much from older brands. The only thing is that the technical characteristics of the new models are more advanced. Previously, brushes could only remove water from the glass, but now they are able to remove dirt, midges, snow, etc. Thanks to this, visibility is significantly improved. Modern wipers are resistant to even the most severe frosts. They are made from durable materials and are divided into winter and summer. Of course, over time they lose their characteristics, so they need to be changed from time to time. Today such products are available to all car enthusiasts. It is very important not to neglect this, because high-quality washers are necessary for driver safety.

Washer problems

For optimal and efficient operation of windshield wipers, they require a constant supply of water. To automate this process, engineers have developed a device called a washer.

Breakdowns and ways to fix them are different. Let's get to know them in more detail.

The steering column switch does not work. Make sure of this by closing two contacts under the steering wheel - front contact 53ah-w, rear - 53ah-wh, and then measure the resistance. If it is low, the switch is replaced with a new one.
There is no water flowing through the washer pump. It should also be replaced.
Dirt has formed in the injectors. Use a sharp needle to clean them.
The wire that connects the pump and the switch has broken. You understand that the only option is replacement.
Relay K3 is faulty. Again, you have no choice but to change the relay.
The hose ruptured and its integrity was compromised. What do you think should be done in such a situation? Absolutely right - change the hose.
