I have a 98 chevy silverado k1500. I installed a new wiper motor and now the wiper blades dont go all the way down and when I turn them on they go off the windshield. Tried to adjust, but there is nothing to adjust the settings. Did they sell me the wrong motor or is there another issue?

Hello, from the sound of things you need to readjust your wiper blades. If they dont go all the way down you need to take them off at the windshield and reposition them closer to the bottom of your windscreen. They should then work fine. I hope this helps.

- Hello, check with Chevrole and find out the part number to the wiper motor and see if it corresponds with what you have been sold, it is possible that you have been sold the wrong part.

- either your wiper blades are too long for the vehicle ,the arms are too long or the linkage is the wrong one
