I replaced the motor and Windshield Wipper transmission. The wipers work now, but the issue is: when you first turn them on, the wiper motor rotates down about 1/4" turn forcing the wipers way below the windshield (which is not correct), and then rotates forward (like normal), but the stopping point is about angled about 45 degree angle (in the way of driving view). I can adjust the wipers to its normal stop positions (before turning them on), then they rotate down first (way below the windshield), then rotates up (like normal), but it stops short (and doesn't go all the way across the window-like normal).

Check tosee if your transmission is hooked up wrong. It may be also remove wiper arms and turn motor on so it will go to park when you shut it off then reinstall one wiper arm and see if it works correctly
