They work fine other than when shut off they stay up on windshield. Have replaced motor unit. Still the same thing.

When shut off do they stop instantly or travel to the position you have mentioned?

They move to the furthest upward point then stop. But if on intermittent they will stay down in-between wipes.

Used from a friend who junks cars and checks out all parts before taking them off. The part I put on worked on the car it was taken off of. Is there any other control box between switch and motor/controlbox.

The only other control box would be a rain sense module if you have that option. Little dohickey by rear veiw mirror on windsheild.
