    Hello,

    I just purchased a 98 grand prix gt, and the windshield wipers will not return to the home position. They seem to work fine, but stop in the upward position on the windshield. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    there is a metal piece that may be bent (can't remember exactly where it's at as I have not had the issue, but have read the fix a few times) look here http://www.grandprixforums.net/f81/h...pers-2185.html

    Pop the caps off the WW shafts. Loosen the 13mm nut, on each shaft. Pull up on the WW base to loosen it on the shaft. Then move both Wipers down to where their supposed to be. Tighten the nuts back up, put the caps back on.
