Title: wipers parking "off position"
Post by: woolley11 on 26 August 2012, 18:58:11

Hi all

Got a 99 MV6 - the wipers stopped at about 45 deg and I thought originally it was the screen been dry and the friction stopping them. But when started again the wipers go to normal park position and then do their stuff but park again at 45 deg.  ???

Is there an adjustment I can do?

Thanks in advance for any help
