2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette Windshield Wipers

If they sometimes do go to the parked position would the linkage have changed? I could see that happening if it never returned to the park position but always stopped in the out position everytime you turned them off. But after the car warms up they usually will stop in the park down position.

Thanks,

I'm sorry I must not have explained it properly. I start the car to go somewhere it had rained and now stopped, so I turn the wipers on to clean the windshield. It is not raining now so I turn them off. They will park in the out position. Keep trying to turn them off and they park in the out position. After driving a little while I turn them off and they will go from the out position to the park position. Hope I have done a better job explaining this time.

Thanks for your help and patience,

John

I replaced the motor and it didn't help, still doing the same thing. When you turn the wipers off they park in the out position. Once the car has warmed and you turn them to off they will park in the proper position. Is there a relay, module or something of that nature for the wipers or intermittent wipers system?

Sorry this is taking so long.

Is the C201 connector visable or hidden behind something?

To add a little more confusion to the issue I now have this scenario. Now when you turn them off. The passenger side wiper goes to the park position. And the driver's side goes to the lower part of the windshield trying to go to the park position but stops about 3 inches short of the park position. They don't stop in the extreme out position when you turn them off now. But do try to park. Thanks,

Having owned one of these for the last 8 years I have had the wiper parking up problem several times. I had never removed the cam from the motor so I assume that it was properly aligned. Solution: Remove cover from cam. Spray WD40 or other cleaner/lubricant all over the cam making sure to get in between the plates of the cam. If the plates stick together, the cam will not go into the proper park position. This always worked for me. If you have removed the cam, and have reinstalled it, and they do not park correctly, make sure the cam is seated all the way down, as it must make contact with the bracket tab that is referred to in the installation instructions. If it is not seated all the way down, it will not hit the tab to engage the cam to park the wipers, it will just pass it, and park the wipers up.
