    Wiper help please?

    My wipers will both go left but when they go right the passenger side wiper doesnt go down and they get tangled. But when the wipers off the car and its just the motor it will work fine. Is my motor dying? If so is it a bitch to do the passenger side wiper? Thanks Jared.

          There is a 13 mm nut that attaches the wiper arm to the motor. Pop the cover at the base of the wiper, set the wiper to its standing position, and tighten the nut. That should fix the problem.

                Could be your stalk. Mine has too much play and doesn't make firm contact 100% of the time anymore. Sometimes it's necessary to push the stalk toward the front of the car to get the wipers to work.
