How do I remove it?

I took off the 10mm nut and now I can't take off the wiper? I think it's stuck..

Or do I have to twist/rotate it?

[Never mind the dirty car.. Something nice is going to happen to it next week..

Should twist off but sometimes they get corroded on
theres a special tool for removing them looks like a mini hub puller

is it like the fronts where you have to press down on the arm while lifting the end?

It looks rusted on. Try levering it off with a large screwdriver wrapped in cloth.

It's on a spline, so it won't twist off.

Little spray of wd40 and couple gentle Dunt's with a hammer on top of the threaded rod going through wiper hole

Can you hold onto the wiper and get someone to drive off quickly?
