Wipers don't stow

Anyone know why the windshield wipers won't stow on a 99 corvette? They are about 2 inches away stowing

Not home now but will look at the FSM later and see what you need to do to evaluate.

The FSM is not helpful. Take a look at this link, it may be what you want. If I can be of further help let me know. Mr. Sam

Take out wiper motor and check for water in the park circuit. Also make sure the windshield basin nipples are clean so the basin does not hold water.
