Wipers delay in "up" position, park correctly
I know the wiper issue had tons of old posts and write ups...used those to swap out my wiper motor.
So got a good new motor, works great and parks down, but when in intermittent delay mode they stop up instead of down.....could I have screwed up the wiper arm linkage? Took pics believe I got it right but hard to tell with the cam layers.
If any suggestions let me know, thanks in advance!

Did you replace the entire unit with the control circuit board? If so, did you use new or used?
I can look to see what the FSM says but I rather doubt it is your installation if they Park in the normal wiper mode.

Yes new circuit board included with new motor....its a Cardone all I could find locally unfortunately from Autozone.
Also spoke to a ex-Ford tech he would suspect motor.
I'm just glad they work can live with it but stumped.
This one came with a swivel plate bit on the top of shaft but I took that off and used cam that was on the car assuming that's factory. The remanufactured Cardone I got that failed did not come with the swivel plate.

Found another post about the cam position which I think is my problem....
Sorry about the unclear 4th sentence, don't think it matters for this issue. What I meant was the the new motor came with a metal piece attached to the shaft where as the remanufactured and broke motor did not have this piece. Probably just a generic GM motor that needs the piece in some applications.
