Re: wipers seating

If the wipers do not make it to the rest possition and the arms are installed correctly, then the problem is most likely the motor itself. I have tried just replacing the switch a few times for this same problem and it didn't solve the problem. Replacing the motor did.
If the wiper arms return to the rest possition and it is just 1" or so too high, then the problem is most likely the arms installed to high. Pull the arms, turn the wipers on and off once and reinstall the arms where they rest about 1" above the bottom of the windshield. WES
