Yes, you have to move the spring tension off the arm. Then you have to take the bolt you took off? You take that thing that the arm is swiveled to and you have to keep the X and Y to the little guy.

Meaning, she slides straight down. So it has to come off straight up. So, you are trying to bring it up with the spring loading that bolt down holder. It is more like you can bring it up by hand if you can move the anchor holder off the gear arm of the wiper motor.

You could get a screwdriver under it but do not go so deep you are pulling up the gear motor arm. The blade cover is thin so look under the arm with a tiny mirror to see how much you are dealing with.
