Last updated:
To change the wiper blades on your Polestar 2 (2021–2024), the arms first need to be lifted into their service position. You activate it from the central touchscreen so the wipers move clear of the bonnet.
Before You Start
- Make sure the bonnet is closed — the arms swing up high.
- Have the new blades ready before you begin.
Moving the Wipers to Service Position
- Stop the vehicle and make sure the wipers are switched off.
- On the central display, open the menu and select ‘More’ > ‘Mirrors and wipers’.
- Activate service mode — the wipers move up to the service position.
- Lift the arms and swap the blades.
Returning to Normal
After fitting the new blades, lower the arms back onto the glass, then deactivate service mode (or simply operate the wipers) so they return to the park position.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I put the Polestar 2 wipers in service position?
Touchscreen > More > Mirrors and wipers > activate service mode, with the car stopped and wipers off.
Why can’t I just lift the arms?
Parked under the bonnet lip they won’t lift far enough — service mode raises them clear and protects the linkage.
Do I need a tool?
No — it’s a touchscreen setting.
How do I cancel it?
Deactivate service mode on the display, or operate the wipers to return them to park.
If a wiper fault appears afterwards, look up the code on autodtcs.com.
