Windshield wipers parking problem

[passion4mopars]

I'll check the order over online....looks like you ordered the wrong crank arm, but we'll get it figured out

Thank you for your help, Kim !   

I changed the small two-speed wiper arm you sold me, along with the long arm between that one and the wiper pivot. Now it works exactly like its supposed too ! Parks like an ace. 


Old 2-speed wiper arm



New 3-speed wiper arm 1


New 3-speed wiper arm 2

Thanks for letting me know this worked out!  I was starting to wonder if perhaps you were still having problems

not to hijack, but my wipers always get stuck on the lower trim edge when I turn them off, and have to be manually picked up and parked on their stop below the trim.
Is that normal?

Same here....

Have ya tried taking the arms off, parking the motor and putting the arms back on?  Just curious cause I had a guy tell me the other day it's what he did and it fixed his problem?

That happened to me the first time they parked. I took both arms off and put them on sort of behind / right above the molding lip they're supposed to stop against then I forced them over. Well one of them anyway.. They wiped lower and went abit harder over the molding edge and hit the lip when they park.

I recon the state of the blades, and whether or not they are wet at the point of parking might have some effect on that aswell. And the gap distance between the molding and the windshield. lower the better

I think my trim has a very small gap, because the blade tends to hit it hard and get stuck on it. I have to take a closer look at it, but thanks for those tips. They should definitely help me get it working right.
