Wiper is off on both directions - Acura 99 TL

When I turn Wiper to moderate to high speed, it hits the bottom with a noise and I also notice its off on the top side (tries to go outside the windshield).

I changed the wiper blades but that didn't help much. Is there any adjustment in the motor to reduce the motion (on both sides).

Thanks for your help.

SR.

u can unscrew the arm. pop it off slowly and move it up a bit so it sits higher. a notch or two should do it

OP, does it go too far down also? And hit the bottom of the windshield.

If it only goes too far up, then do what Rajca said. When you take the wiper arm off, turn it back a couple of gears.

Your wiper motor arm bearings *I think thats what its called* needs to be replaced. So you'll probably just have to buy new arms. Heres a link on how to replace it https://acurazine.com/forums/8819440-post/
