5. Adjust the wiper speed: If you want to adjust the speed of the wipers, you can use the wiper control stalk. The exact method may vary depending on the model, but typically, you can adjust the wiper speed by turning a dial on the wiper control stalk.
6. Turn off the wipers: To turn off the front windshield wipers, push the end of the wiper control stalk back towards you. The wipers will stop wiping the windshield.
Please note that the rear wiper on a Ford Fiesta may turn on automatically when shifting into reverse if the front wipers are already on. If you need to turn off the rear wiper, there may be a separate control or knob specifically for the rear wiper.
Remember to always use the windshield washers before wiping a dry windshield and install new wiper blades as soon as they begin to leave bands of water and smears on the windshield.
