Hello All,
1999 Saturn SL1
The other day after shutting my car off, I accidentally left my wipers on, long story short.. overnight they had frozen to the windshield. And when I turned he car on the next day, the wipers were stuck to the window.
After I freed the wipers, they would go all the way up, down, then back up and park at the middle of the windshield.. I was able to force them down a little, However now they go slightly down, 1/2 inch or so, they work fine for now, but I would like to adjust them for them to no longer do this.
I imagine its just something in the linkage that needs to be adjusted.. unless I messed up the motor some how. If it is just the linkage, is there a certain way it needs to be set to properly be synced? Just a note, I do not think this has anything to do with the actual splines where the wiper arms connect to, I don't believe they are stripped, and believe they are still in good condition.
Let me know what you think.
