Wiper "home" location off?

[rockyc82]

I've got an 01 Yuk and when I run the wipers they don't go all the way down. They will go to the bottom and start going up again about 1.5 to 2 inches then stop. anyone know how to reset the home or stop position? I know you can take the arm loose and move them a few degrees but then I will lose 1.5 to 2 inches of the top of the stroke...

not sure if our trucks are still the same but they had a wiper circuit board on the older ones....was on the firewall on driver's side. they caused all sorts of issues if they had bad connections.

also, it should be easy to put them where they should be when off...once i figure it out that is....because the windshield should have a tiny black line or other mark where the wipers go...most if not all cars have it on the glass u just have to look for it.

oh and to help in your search, try the term "park position" or wipers wont "park"...use the term park... its the term most often used for the "home" or "off" position. good luck.

Thanks a bunch. I will look into that and do some a little looking around now that I know the proper term.
Thanks
