Hold the wiper stalk in the up position, intermittent wipe, for a couple of seconds immediately after switching the ignition/engine off. Wipers will move to clear the bonnet. This is for the latest model.

Just tried this on our UX.  Works!!!  Haven't been out in our Gen4 RX to try it yet so will have to wait to see.

Thank you.

Just been out for essential shopping and glad to report that I still have wiper blades that work ! 

They seem quieter ( unless I'm imagining it ) and no problems with any smearing on the windscreen. My blades were only just over a year old but had accumulated a lot of crud that the WD40 removed.  I'll use it again ( now I know how to get at the blades ) and report back if anything goes wrong.

Continuous use of WD40 on wiper blades will cause them to wrinkle making the useless.
