Is there a way to adjust the front wiper amplitude? Mine never stop at the same place... Most of the time they go up too far, which causes the blades to go off the windshield.
Thanks

Hey there 95 owner. I know you can adjust the wiper itself, but I would look deeper first to find the source of the problem first. For instance, note how much play the wipers have. Grab one and lift it slightly off the window. Then move it in the direction the wiper takes and move it back and forth. A lot of play is what I am expecting. You will need to check for loose or worn parts on the linkage of the wiper system.
