So I've removed the cables from the stick but how do I fully remove them from the assembly? The manual says to rotate. But what do I rotate? There's little orange things in there too. Is it them?

The front wipers on my 2010 slowed down to a crawl. I removed the wiper arms (you need a puller) and the upper cowl panel grilles to find out the issue. One of the grommets on one side of the linkage had split and the linkage was binding. The motor was still good ( I stopped using the wipers before the extra strain on the motor caused it any damage) so I intended to just replace the linkage and first priced a replacement on eBay. I then went to my Ford dealer for their price. The price from Ford was cheaper then eBay. Ford sells just the linkage or a motor and linkage assembly. The weird thing is, the motor and linkage was cheaper then just the linkage! Of course I bought the motor and linkage. Replacing the motor and linkage became an adventure. To remove them you need to remove both upper cowl panel grilles AND the lower cowl panel which can be called the firewall right behind the engine. To remove the firewall, you need to remove the brake master cylinder/AC purge valves/battery junction box, all attached to the firewall. Factory time is 1.5 hours, good luck making that time!
