The typical rear wiper blade size for the 2017 Nissan Versa Note is 12 inches.
The Versa Note’s rear window is relatively compact, and the blade length is designed to clear a narrow pane efficiently. Some regional variants or trims may use a different length, so it’s wise to confirm before purchasing.
How to confirm the exact size
To ensure you buy the correct blade, use one of these verification methods before ordering:
- Measure the current blade length from tip to tip when it is removed.
- Check the owner’s manual or a dealership parts catalog for the specific rear blade size for your trim and market.
- Remove the blade and inspect the part number or model on the blade; search that number online for compatibility.
Verifying the size helps avoid buying the wrong blade, which can lead to poor wiping performance or interference with the window.
How to replace the rear wiper blade
Follow these general steps to replace the blade on a Versa Note. If you’re unsure about the process, a quick visit to a shop can also do it in minutes.
- Lift the wiper arm away from the glass until it stays upright.
- Release the old blade by pressing the release tab or button on the blade connector and slide the blade out of the hook or frame.
- Measure or confirm the replacement blade length to be 12 inches, and align the new blade’s connector with the arm’s hook.
- Insert the new blade into the arm until you hear a click, then gently lower the wiper back to the glass.
- Test the wiper to ensure smooth operation and no streaking.
When replacing, handle the wiper arm carefully to avoid bending it, and avoid pulling the blade too hard from the connector to prevent damage.
