Lada Largus is a family car with a high level of capacity and modern design. The car is the first joint project of AvtoVAZ and Renault. This model comes standard with frame windshield wipers. Which are an important spare part for any car. Let's look at the types and sizes of wipers.
Front right windshield wiper on LADA Largus.
The windshield wiper is an indispensable driver's assistant. They do an excellent job of removing any kind of dirt on the front and rear windows of the car. All configurations of the Lada Largus include two sets of wipers: front and rear, except for cars with a van body. If you are not satisfied with the performance of the factory wipers, you can always replace them with more suitable ones.

Replacing windshield wipers Largus
It is recommended to immediately replace this car accessory in case of the slightest breakdown. Since the safety of not only the driver, but also all passengers of the car depends on the efficiency of its operation. After all, wipers play a very important role in driving a car. They provide good visualization of the driving process.
To replace, you will need a 13 key.
When removing brushes you need to be extremely careful. After all, the lever under the influence of the spring can suddenly fall onto the windshield, which can lead to cracks. And in the future, require expensive glass replacement.
Replacing wipers is carried out in several stages
- as soon as you have determined which of the new models of wipers and purchased them. Then you need to prepare a key and a figured screwdriver;
- Next you need to find the place where the brush comes into contact with the wiper lever;
- The locking mechanism must be bent to the side.
- completely remove the wiper from the corresponding mounting. The technical documentation for your wipers describes the type of your mounting, which will facilitate the dismantling process;
- Next, a new wiper is inserted into the mount until a characteristic click occurs. Which will signal that the cleaner is completely secured in the mechanism;
- A similar procedure should be repeated on the rear view glass.
When changing windshield wipers, you need to be careful. Since the design may contain small fastening parts, if lost, the wiper will not function.

Therefore, it is better to carry out such a replacement in daylight or in well-lit garage conditions. The installation steps may vary depending on the modification of the wipers.
Installation of frame wipers may require forceful intervention for rigid fixation. While frameless wipers are installed in an easier way due to their greater mobility.
Frameless windshield wipers for Lada Largus
First of all, I recommend a set of frameless wipers Bosch Aerotwin AR 500 S (article 3397009081). High-quality brushes with a spoiler, quiet, durable. Read about Bosch Aerotwin.

A good analogue to the previous brushes is the Kamoka (article 27E17). This is a set of two 500 mm brushes with a hook mount. Reliable and excellent cleaning brushes, and at the same time their price is lower. Read more about Kamoka windshield wipers.
I also recommend paying attention to the SWF VisioNext wipers (article 119850), created under the wing of the Valeo company. Since these are single brushes, you need a pair.

Types of wiper inoperability and their elimination
Lada Largus wipers operate in three modes as standard: at low speed, at high speed and with intermittent frequency of cleaning the glass. When the wipers are installed correctly, mechanical damage rarely occurs. And such a replacement becomes necessary mainly due to wear and tear of the windshield wipers. It is recommended to replace brushes every season for effective and high-quality cleaning.
The most common windshield wiper failures include:
- failure of the feed pump;
- damage to the connecting hose, squeezing of the tubes or presence of plugs in the nozzles;
- lack of the required amount of washer fluid;
Washer reservoir under the hood on the left side - the fuse leading to the windshield wipers has blown, as a result of which the wipers stop executing the command;
- delay in receiving commands to the brushes due to incorrect operation of the steering column switch;
- liquid getting under the brush casing due to a malfunction of the fasteners or frame. Under the influence of moisture, rust occurs, which causes the wipers to stop working;
- a decrease in the level of lubricants inside the wiper mounts leads to their slow operation;
- a loose brush leash causes the brushes to move jerkily. Because of this, the cleaning efficiency is significantly reduced. And at high speeds, such wipers can protrude from gusts of wind;
- cracks in the rubber are a factor that can cause streaks to appear on the glass. And in some cases even lead to scratches on the surface of the glass;
- Severe contamination of the wipers leads to the appearance of uncleaned areas or spots on the front window. What will reduce visibility for the driver;
- deformation of the wipers will lead to poor fit of the wiper to the glass and an uneven level of cleaning;
Frame brushes for Largus
If you prefer to drive with frame wipers, then the choice here is quite wide. Many manufacturers offer frame windshield wipers of the required length and fastening:
- set of classic frame brushes Bosch Twin 500 (article 3397118560),
Buy
- set of frame wipers SWF Das Original (article 116220),
Buy
- piece Denso Standard (article DM-550),
Buy
- piece Bosch Eco 50C (article 3397004670) - the most affordable branded wipers.

What to choose: framed or frameless?
Before choosing, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the operating features of each type of purifier.
Frameless products adhere more tightly to the glass surface, providing high-quality cleaning. These accessories are not noisy at high engine speeds and are able to resist freezing well.
There is an opinion among owners about an increase in the rate of glass wear due to the close contact of the cleaners with the surface. However, this does not stop many owners of the Lada Largus, because stylish-looking and efficient windshield wiper blades negate these concerns.
What to do with a curved windshield? After all, it is known that frameless options on such a surface will be insufficiently effective, leaving dirty streaks along the edges of the cleaning zone.
This is where frame accessories for LADA Largus come to the rescue, as their processing area on such a surface is somewhat larger. In addition, these options are much cheaper than frameless competitors. Disadvantages include susceptibility to corrosion and short service life.
Price comparison for original size wipers
For the graph, we took prices from one site - a popular online auto parts store. This will avoid confusion in pricing.
Comparison of prices for wipers in Largus
As you can see from the histogram, hybrid wipers are the most expensive. Frameless ones are at least 30% cheaper. For the price of frameless ones, you can buy two or three sets of frame ones.
Steering wheel wiper switch
The operating principle of windshield wipers on Largus is quite simple. To select intermittent mode, you need to move the switch to position “1”, medium speed – to position “2”, high speed brushes – to position “3”.
To turn on the washer, you need to slide the switch towards you - the circuit is closed, and the command is given to the pump, which pumps liquid to the nozzles.
Possible faults
The main sign of problems with the steering column switch is a malfunction of the washer or wipers (the modes do not switch, only one of them works). There may be several reasons:
- damage to the latch, as a result of which the fixation of the lever is broken - the “antennae” breaks off and the lever cannot be held in its normal position;
- fastening is broken;
- the contacts of the electrical circuit stick - caused by moisture getting inside the case;
- wear of any mechanism parts;
- melting due to short circuit.
In any unclear situation, diagnosis is necessary. Both inspection and repair require dismantling the switch.
Dismantling and replacing parts
First you need to prepare all the necessary tools. You will need a shaped screwdriver, a wrench and a marker. The negative terminal is disconnected from the battery, and the vehicle's on-board network is de-energized. Then the decorative overlay and the plate through which the sound signal is pressed are removed. The process then looks like this:
- Use a wrench to unscrew the steering wheel fastening nut;
- the wire block is disconnected from the sound signal, after which you need to make marks on the shaft and steering wheel with a marker - they will be useful during installation;
- unscrew the lower fastening screws of the switch casing;
- the screw securing the switch on the steering wheel shaft is loosened - it is not recommended to unscrew it completely, since screwing it back will be problematic;
- the steering wheel and the upper casing are removed;
- The wire chip is disconnected from the switch, after which you can remove it.
If repairs are carried out, the device must be disassembled. Drill out the rivets and remove the cover. When disassembling you should be careful, as there are many small parts inside that can be lost. All damaged parts must be replaced, and moving elements are lubricated.
“Non-native” sizes of wipers on Largus
Many Largus owners are not satisfied with the glass area that can be cleaned with standard size brushes. That's why they install longer windshield wipers. The most common installation options:
- 53 cm + 53 cm,
- 55 cm + 53,
- 60 cm + 53.
If you want to experiment with the length of your windshield wipers, I recommend wipers at this length.

Which wipers to choose
Based on advice from the forums, frameless brushes from the manufacturer NPA were chosen. The first is NP51110106 21″ (534mm), the second is NP51110109 24″ (610mm). Currently, each will cost about 300 rubles.
The result of the wipers' work can be seen in the first photo. This is not what I expected. The sharp corner has not completely disappeared. But nevertheless it became much more comfortable than it was. I've been moving around with this option for a long time. The plans are to install the right wiper a little shorter to finally remove the snot.
On the plus side: after installing frameless brushes, thanks to new rubber bands, the noise from the wipers decreased.
August 2017 . Let's continue the topic. After the first winter, the German NPAs rusted and began to creak heavily.
To replace them, wipers under the Lentel brand were purchased. These are sold in Lenta. A budget option. Only little-known Chinese ones are cheaper.
As planned, one of them bought a short one, 20″ (500 mm) long - this is the right one. The left one remains the same length - 24″ (610 mm).
What happened after installation? The sharp angle has disappeared. Now it has become approximately 130-135 degrees. What happened to the “snot”? It was not possible to completely get rid of it again. At the intersection of the wipers, water still leaks out a little. Snotty, so to speak.
Troubleshooting Features
Size of windshield wiper blades for Lada Kalina
Many breakdowns can be corrected yourself. The most difficult type of work is a power outage. This requires special knowledge.
If the brushes do not work, first check the presence of working fluid or the water level in the tank. Drivers often miss this point. If the fluid does not pass through the injectors, then they are probably clogged or the connecting hose is damaged. There is also a possibility that the motor itself and its elements have failed.
Check if the fuse is working properly. Damage to the fuse link requires replacement. Inspect the steering column switch. If it is broken, the signal does not reach the pump. Also examine the circuit for an open circuit. To do this, use a multimeter to check the voltage. Traces of oxidation on the pump indicate the need for cleaning.
It is necessary to resort to choosing quality wipers. This way, you eliminate the risk of unexpected surprises. The brush must be replaced in a timely manner. Any part wears out over time. When carrying out repairs, it is recommended to cover the windshield with a blanket. The holder may accidentally fall onto the glass under the action of the inserted spring. Additional protection wouldn't hurt. The recommended frequency for replacing wipers is every season. The resource stated by the manufacturer is about 30 thousand km.
Recommendations regarding replacement
It is clear that the procedure itself for replacing the useful products of the security complex we are considering is simple to the point of indecentness. However, it still makes sense to highlight a couple of points.
Firstly, resort to purchasing and installing only high-quality brushes on your LADA Largus, which will allow you to avoid unexpected surprises on the road (breaking of the working rubber in the rain, etc.), as well as maintain cleaning efficiency throughout the declared service life (about 30 thousand km. ).
Secondly, when performing the replacement process, it is recommended to cover the surface of the Lada Largus windshield with a thick blanket. If the bent holder, after removing the brush, unexpectedly and spontaneously falls onto the glass under the action of the spring insert, then such protection will protect the surface from damage.
