When turning my wipers off they do not park in the normal position. Instead of parking in the lower left side of the windshield, they swing back up a bit and park a in an annoying position in front of the field of visions. ie: park position takes the wipers back up the right a bit instead of placing them all the way down to the left. It's as if something is reversed for parking and instead of going all the way down and to the left, they go back up a bit to the right. It appears everything is wired correctly.
See picture for where they park currently. I've searched the discussions and cant seem to find any answers. so I turn to the wise members for help |

It sounds like people are getting confused about the splines, here.
There are two sets of splines. One set is the obvious ones, where the wiper arms bolt on to the shafts that stick out through the cowl. The second set is where the wiper motor itself attaches to the linkage that the first set of splines are attached to. The second set is the one that is misaligned, changing where the wipers park. --DD |
