boooo problems
Today, I think my passenger wiper is loose? It came up slower than the driver side wiper and they got tangled and the blades are all twisted and bent now 
I have a small tool kit, but nothing that fits the nut at the bottom of the wiper to tighten or loosen it. Sigh...
aaaaaaand. I think I am about to get clusterfvcked. I was driving and the tach just went to zero, and then shot back up a second later. Here it goessss...

Haha, the blades are still able to be taken off, so I should be fine...
although I might ask them to borrow tools since my little kit is insufficient for the entire wiper arm... I wonder if they'll do that or just tell me to buy a set. I just hope the stress of the blades tangling didn't damage any of the motors moving the wipers.

Haha yeah... I have a good set of tools at home, I'm just away at school, so...
but I'm making the drive home tomorrow, so I'll have a much easier time and a warm garage instead of trying to figure this out in 20-degree weather.

The motor is running fine, its just that wiper is not following it. I'm guessing one of the components is stripped? But how can it happen so suddenly, since it's been fine up until today. Hopefully I'll be able to figure it out when I go home.
Meanwhile, since my other two blades are bent out of shape, I bought new ones, the ANCO contours. Aren't the 3.2 wipers similar?
