Hello –

Not sure if you have fixed your vehicle yet but here are the directions. Sorry no pics are available.

Need more specifics on your vehicle. Is is a LS, LSE, or S. I see it is a 2WD. With that are you sure the wiper motor is working?

The gears on the wiper linkage and or blades themselves may be lose or stripped. Since they were going in snow/ice that may have caused this.
