If your windshield wipers stop in an upright position instead of resting at the base, this common issue can be frustrating, especially in bad weather. Here's what might be causing it and how to fix it.
Possible causes
Faulty Park Switch: Ensures wipers return to their resting position; a malfunction can cause them to stop mid-swipe or stay upright.
Worn Linkages: Mechanical arms may become loose or misaligned.
Motor Issues: A failing motor might not complete its cycle.
Electrical Problems: Blown fuses, damaged wiring, or faulty relays can disrupt the operation.
Possible risks
Obstructed visibility in rain or snow.
Reduced wiper lifespan due to exposure.
Underlying electrical or mechanical issues.
How to solve problems
Inspect for loose bolts or wear.
Test the Motor for unusual noises.
Check Fuses and replace them if needed.
Seek Professional Help for persistent problems.
Precautions
Regularly clean and inspect wipers, replacing worn parts promptly. Addressing issues early ensures safer driving and reduces repair costs. Don't delay repairs if your wipers stop working properly.
