I have replaced the wiper motor and the wiper blades stop vertical on the wind shield. Readjusting the position of the wipers does not help. The wipers wipe the hood when that is done. I have done something wrong. Before I take everything apart again, I am inquiring if anyone has any experience with this problem.
You installed your wiper linkage 180 degrees out of synch. Just remove the linkage and install it in the right position. This is a very common mistake when the wiper motor is replaced. You will have to reposition your wiper arms when you get the linkage properly installed.
