My plan was to remove the 8 mm nut and reset the wiper. That nut is really on to stay and the only way I know to remove it is with my impact wrench - which I hate doing on plastic.

After I figured out the entire wiper doesn't lift up, I lifted each wiper and the left wiper mount wiggles all over the place, the left one seems solid.

I gather I need to remove the panel below the wipers, to see what has loosened, or perhaps broken.

If I could have easily removed the wiper arm I would have gone ahead without bothering you folks.

I would like to hear from someone who's gone through this without breaking anything and whose wipers now park as they should.

Wiper blade suggestions: It also needs new blades. Any suggestions? Bosch?
