I have a 2002 Chevy Impala. About a week ago my driver side windshield wiper was caught in the wind and instead of it going down into place it went off the windshield. I had to pull over and push the wiper down into place and it has been doing this ever since. When it rains, it will either get stuck halfway and then it will go off the windshield, or it just stays there. Does anyone know what could be wrong with it?
that's maximum possibly your wiper assembly circuit/motor. I also have a Chevy S10 pickup and had to swap mine these days. Mine did precisely the comparable element. they might stick and merely sit down there. i attempted a sparkling fuse and it did no longer artwork. I went to O'Reilly's and that they pronounced a sparkling motor assembly for the wipers. that's a sprint circuit board finding element which you replace in a plastic housing case under the hood. It fee approximately 20-25 money finding on the place you get them. you will get them on line as properly as quickly as you comprehend the form quantity. O'Reilly's or yet another automobile restore save can get you a form quantity.
it is loose at the connection between the windshield arm and shaft. There should either an allen head set screw or a regular screw to loosen then adjust where it should be my matching the other wiper. Then tighten it. The shaft is what is coming out of the bottom of the windshield.
Sounds like the wiper arm has become loose on the spindle. Try moving the wiper by hand to determine security to the mechanism With the wipers in the Parked situation, check the nut that secures the wiper arm to the drive. If it's loose tighten it up. You may have to remove a cover at the end of the wiper arm to gain access, It happens. K
