T350 wiper arm

[cropsprayer]

Not having had my 350 long, today was the first time I have had to use the wipers believe it or not....problem is the drivers side wiper goes past the end of the screen, over the rubber surround and doesnt stop until the tip is sticking out the side of the car by about 2 inches!! Anyone know how I can adjust it please?

Hi Rob
I had the same prob with my T350, its an easy fix coz i did mine
Remove the nut,then you should find that the wiper arm comes off it's splines,(it might be a tight fit, and you may have to lever it off,) all you do then is position the arm onto the splines either to the left or right depending which way you need to go.
It may take you several go's to get it right, then finally tighten the nut, and hopefully that should be sorted.

Good luck Dave

Doesn't anyone check this at the factory, before the car goes out, to make sure the wipers are aligned correctly?
Basic quality control if you ask me.

Sorry didnt explain properly, I didnt buy it new its just over a year old.

Got round to doing this last night and was easy enough to do as valhalla said........tried it out and all looked fine until I went to close the bonnet which now hits the wiper arm in its new position

Any advice anyone!?!?!

Oh well we tried, how about checking the length of the wiper blade against another car, just that someone may have fitted the wrong blade in the past?

Another good idea....thanks, will try and check out if they are actually the correct wiper blades.
