Review on ๐Ÿ”‹ OTUAYAUTO Battery Terminal and Wiper Arm Extraction Tool by Art Porras

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Looks nice but didn't work for me.

I bought this tool to remove the rear wiper arm from my 2013 Explorer (the arm itself was removed by an overzealous car wash, this was necessary to remove the remains). well thought out and well done and I had high hopes for it. However, after my initial attempts were successful, I found that I had only removed the plastic casing for the base and the metal tip was stubbornly attached to the threaded post. So I tried again. I was disillusioned with this instrument. The allowable spread of the two pincers is limited by the cone adjuster, which works well enough but sharpens too soon. In addition, the design of the device allows the tong arms to be slightly bent. And between those two problems, I couldn't get the pliers under the tip to keep them from slipping off. I tried everything I could think of, but the tip wasn't much wider than the post it was attached to. I ended up just using a dremel and carefully cutting this thing off.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Communication with seller
