Thanks so much for investigating this. I tried pushing the wipers with
the motor on to try & re-position them. This did change the exact spot
they parked in slightly but now they're more on the top of the
windshield. Anyway maybe this bit of info is of use to you.
Thanks again & I look forward to your help!
