Hi members, 

I have a question regarding the parking position of my wipers on my 1969 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham.
Recently the wiper motor stopped working. I bought a brand-new wiper motor manufactured by Cardone from Rock Auto.

Upon installation we noticed the wipers do not park properly. They stick out above the hood.

When turning the wiper switch on they retract into the parking position below the hood briefly and then start operating normally. When turning the switch off they stop at the bottom of the windshield but does not retract into the park position.

On reactivation of the switch the same process described above repeats itself. At times the wipers park and unparks erratically and then eventually settles into the normal wiping mode. We have tried to adjust them to no avail.

Is there a specific adjustment procedure to follow?


Thank you in advance for any advice
