Wipers
Got Vacuum system working now but problem with wiper. When the wiper door closes it hits the right wiper as the right wiper does not quite(about 1/8 " more needed) go down far enough. This stops the system from working until I manually push right wiper down. It is not the vacuum control on the wiper that I just put in new but there is some play in the wiper arm itself. I have it adjusted as far as I can. It seems like there should be less play in the wiper arm but not sure asnd not sure how to correct. Any ideas on how this problem can be corrected? Tx. Ed

Re: Wipers (edxaide)
There is a "park" switch that the right wiper arm hits and lets the door system know that the wipers are down far enough to let to door close without hitting anything. I don't know if there is an adjustment for this switch but you might want to look at it to see if it can be moved any.

Re: Wipers (edxaide)
There ar 2 adjustments for the wipers. Each arm has a sliding adjustment that you can easily see from above. In addition, the "rotor" in the wiper bay mounted to the motor can be adjusted. Loosen the nut and the rotor can slide back and forth to control the park position of both blades.
Hope this takes care of it.
