Size of VAZ 2114 wipers - size of windshield wiper blades

This car has not been produced since 2013. But purchasing brushes for him will not be difficult. The replacement process is simple: all brushes, including the rear one, are equipped with a hook type mount.

Well-functioning brushes are the key to avoiding problems on the road. VAZ 2114 is a car whose body is completely identical to VAZ 2108, 21099 and 2109. This allows the installation of identical brushes. It is only important to remember some features of the overall dimensions. There are no instructions from the manufacturer about the inadmissibility of installing longer brushes.

But if it is more than 510 mm on the passenger side, then water flow will certainly form between the two brushes. It interferes with visibility and creates inconvenience. When installing brushes of non-standard length, it is necessary to make changes to the drive design. Change restrictions. Which requires time and effort. It is much easier and faster to purchase brushes that are suitable in length.

What happens if you choose the wrong brush size?

Large brushes

If you select brushes a little larger than required, then the pressing force of the brushes on the glass (especially frameless ones) drops significantly, which contributes to poor cleaning of the glass. Why are wipers poorly cleaned?

Also, during operation, larger brushes can climb onto the edge of the windshield sealing rubber during operation, thereby breaking away from the working surface.

Well, they have another problem that occurs on Kalinas, the brush on the driver’s side hits the edge of the driver’s door.

Small brushes

If the brushes are selected lower than required, then the main disadvantage is the reduction in the working surface area.

Also, due to small brushes, a dirty patch or “snot” of accumulated water may form in the middle of the windshield (during rain).

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.

Brush sizes

VAZ 2113, 2114, 2115

The size of the windshield blades on these models is symmetrical and amounts to 51 cm on each side. But it is also possible to install brushes of a different size: on the driver’s side 53cm, on the passenger side 51cm. If you put both 53 cm each, then a thin strip of water will form in the middle.

The rear window blade size is 30cm. But you can put 33cm here, and there will be no problems. Some people also set it to 40cm, but in this case it will be necessary to increase the wiper stroke limit. In other words, so that the wiper does not fall very low and does not run into the rear window seal. This is done very simply: remove the motor and put it back, but offset by a couple of teeth.

VAZ 2108, 2109, 21099, 2110, 2111, 2112

The brush sizes are similar to 2114 (see above) because the body is the same, the windows are the same.

Kalina

As for Kalina, the driver’s brush is 60cm, the passenger’s brush is 40cm (41cm is possible). Rear wiper – 36cm.

Priora

The ideal brush size for the Priora is the same as for the VAZ 2114, i.e. 53cm is the driver’s brush, 50cm is the passenger’s brush (you can also try 51cm and 48cm). Rear wiper – 33cm.

Granta

On the grant, the size of the brushes coincides with Kalinowski’s: 60 cm for the driver’s brush, 40 (41 cm) for the passenger’s brush.

So, you have already decided on the size, then you need to find out how and which brushes to choose? Which brushes to choose?

Main dimensions of wipers on VAZ 2114:

The VAZ 2114 five-door hatchback is equipped from the factory with wipers of the following sizes:

• Driver side: 510 mm (20″).
• Passenger side: 510 mm (20″).
• Rear: 300 mm (12″).

Important: the most common type of windshield wiper fastening for this VAZ model is a hook.

Alternative sizes:

If it is necessary to replace the left brushes, you can use products with a length of 530 (mm), but on the right side you should leave a standard size brush - 510 (mm).

The rear brushes are also replaced with larger sizes - 330-400 (mm).

Other names:

Other designations for the VAZ 2114 hatchback on the Russian market: VAZ 2108, VAZ 2109, VAZ 2113, Lada Samara.
Years of production Years of production of all modifications of the model: 2001-2013.

Disclaimer: Although the data represents official manufacturer figures, the information above is for reference only and is not guaranteed to be completely accurate. For cars of the same model manufactured for the USA, Europe and Japan, the size of the wipers may differ.

Frameless

This design has no skeleton. Frameless wipers are a tape, inside of which there is a pressing element (for example, a steel plate). They clearly win in appearance. Most often (from the lowest price category) they are produced according to car models in order to replicate the curve of the windshield as much as possible. But in the premium segment, frameless blades are made using special technologies, where you don’t need to know the brand of the car, just indicate the length of the wipers (Length of wipers VAZ 2114, 2115, 2113).

Frameless Wiper Blades

Size of wipers on VAZ 2114

As it turned out, there are already 4 types of brushes: frame, frameless, hybrid and winter. My choice fell on frameless ones.

The size of the windshield blades on these models is symmetrical and amounts to 50 cm on each side. But it is also possible to install brushes of a different size: on the driver’s side 53cm, on the passenger side 51cm. If you put both 53 cm each, then a thin strip of water will form in the middle.

This is exactly what I decided to do, driver 53 cm, passenger 50, the result suits me)

What kind of wiper blades should be installed on VAZ cars

Listed below are the sizes of wipers installed on VAZ and LADA cars of different models. Their sizes vary, so when replacing old windshield wiper blades, it is important to choose the exact size that is included in your model.

What happens if the brushes are of a different size?

The thing is that wipers of different sizes also have different radii of the pressing blade, which depends on the curvature of the windshield. For example, if you install brushes that are larger than those recommended by the manufacturer, then they will press less well and their effectiveness will drop significantly.

If their size is larger, then during operation they may touch the edge of the windshield and rise above the glass, reducing the service life of the windshield wiper mechanism.

If their size is smaller, there will no longer be such a problem as above, but the degree of glass cleaning also decreases. This happens because the wipers do not clean the entire surface of the glass, leaving dirty places in its center and along the edges, because they simply cannot reach these remote places.

This car has not been produced since 2013. But purchasing brushes for him will not be difficult. The replacement process is simple: all brushes, including the rear one, are equipped with a hook type mount.

Well-functioning brushes are the key to avoiding problems on the road. VAZ 2114 is a car whose body is completely identical to VAZ 2108, 21099 and 2109. This allows the installation of identical brushes. It is only important to remember some features of the overall dimensions. There are no instructions from the manufacturer about the inadmissibility of installing longer brushes.

When installing brushes of non-standard length, it is necessary to make changes to the drive design. Change restrictions. Which requires time and effort. It is much easier and faster to purchase brushes that are suitable in length.

How to maintain and replace brushes?

To replace the windshield wiper blade 2110, just bend the rocker arm and then unfasten the rubber band. The frame structure itself must be lubricated with silicone oil.

For servicing the rear, the same rules are used. But frameless wipers have an initially curved shape.

The fastening there is done directly along the rocker arm.

Maintenance of brushes consists solely of timely cleaning of salts and derivatives of the washer fluid (dyes may remain after it - in cheap variations). This should be done either with a special solvent or with a solution of citric acid (immerse for 10 - 15 minutes, then wipe thoroughly with a rag). If even after this the brush does not clean the glass properly, it is time to replace it, since it has literally worn down to the ground. At the same time, the pressing force decreases, and the shape of the brush may differ from the initial one.

In general, which wipers are better is up to each individual to decide. With length everything is very clear. It should be remembered that if there are cracks in the glass, the wipers will wear out very quickly, and in order to increase their wear life, the rocker arm should be lubricated with silicone oil in a timely manner.

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.

Dimensions

The dimensions of the windshield wiper blades are determined by the manufacturer. You won't be able to find original ones for sale. But it won’t be difficult to find high-quality analogues in car stores. It is important to be careful: you need to give preference to manufacturers who have proven themselves well. There are a lot of counterfeit products on sale today. Ordinary fakes. Most often the latter are found - imitating well-known brands.

It's not that difficult to spot a fake. It is important to pay attention to many details. If the packaging is of poor quality, there is damage on it: most likely the buyer is looking at a fake. You need to measure the length of the brushes in advance. This will avoid mistakes.

Original articles

It will be impossible to purchase original brushes. Since AvtoVAZ has long ago stopped producing such parts on its own. Large volumes are purchased from well-known manufacturers. For example, Bosch. Windshield wipers from this company are installed off the assembly line and are sold in their original packaging. It is important to remember: even AvtoVAZ products are counterfeit. You need to be careful when choosing. Poor quality brushes fail faster.

Replacement options

In addition to the original ones, there are many alternatives. Products from various manufacturers are well suited for the VAZ 2114. Since the length and mounting method are universal. Without exception, all presented products can be divided into categories:

• frame;
• frameless;
• hybrid;
• winter.

Frame

The classic design involves a metal frame. Its presence makes the structure more durable. But it is important to remember: it creates an obstacle to the passage of air around the car body. under the influence of the oncoming flow, the brush simply comes off a short distance from the windshield. Which worsens contact with the surface being cleaned. The advantage of frame brushes is their low cost.

Frameless

This variety does not have the disadvantages of brushes equipped with a frame. It has a presentable appearance and good aerodynamics. The oncoming air flow easily passes through the brush. Doesn't linger. Thanks to this, even at speeds of more than 140 km/h, contact with the surface being cleaned is not lost. Moreover, the cost of the part is relatively low. It has low strength.

Hybrid

Models of this type combine all the advantages. There are virtually no disadvantages. The brush itself is made from a single piece of rubber. But at the same time there is a metal structure inside it. Making the brush quite stiff. The shape of the wiper is aerodynamic, air easily flows around it. This allows you to avoid problems at high speed. Contact of surfaces (cleaned and cleaning) does not deteriorate.

Winter

Winter wipers are distinguished by their elasticity - even at sub-zero temperatures they clean the glass well. The secret of this property lies in the addition of rubber to the composition. It has the ability to retain its qualities in any conditions. Regardless of the temperature around. These brushes are suitable for those operating in the Far North:

When purchasing, it is important to focus on a number of factors:

• maximum driving speed (if more than 100 km/h, it is necessary to use brushes with an aerodynamic shape);
• weather conditions (if it’s constantly negative, you can’t do without winter brushes).

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.

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.

Wiper blades

Length of windshield wiper blades 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.

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:

1. They are generally 30 cm long (11-12 in inches).
2. It is possible to replace it with 33 cm.
3. 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.

Rear window wiper

What size wiper blades are needed for the rear window? Most models are equipped with standard ones - 33 cm. It is possible to replace them with longer variations of brushes, but you need to take into account that the electric motor is less efficient. Accordingly, if you use a wiper that is too long, it may jam, for example, if snow has stuck to the glass. Frameless wipers should not be installed at the rear - they are simply not needed there. Their only advantage is resistance to freezing (and only if the rubber is frost-resistant). As a last resort, you can always reverse using the side mirrors.

Where is the wiper relay for VAZ 2114?

Remember one important thing, before you start disassembling the stove, wiper, headlight or anything else - make sure that the fuse responsible for this circuit has not blown
