How do you adjust the windshield wipers back to their original position on a 2000 Ford Crown Victoria?

The 2000 Ford Crown Victoria doesn't have an adjustment for the *resting position* of the windshield wipers. The wipers park in a single, pre-determined location at the bottom of the windshield. There's no user-adjustable setting to change where they rest.

If your wipers aren't parking correctly (e.g., they're not fully returning to their resting position, or they're parking in an unusual spot), the problem is likely mechanical or electrical:

* Worn wiper motor: The motor might be failing, preventing it from properly returning the wipers to their park position.

* Worn wiper transmission: The linkage connecting the motor to the wiper arms could be worn or broken.

* Electrical issue: A problem with the wiring or the wiper control switch could prevent the motor from receiving the correct signal to park.

* Binding wiper arms: The wiper arms themselves might be binding, preventing them from moving freely. This could be due to debris, corrosion, or a damaged wiper arm.

To address the issue, you would need to diagnose the specific problem and likely have a mechanic or auto electrician address the issue, potentially replacing parts of the wiper system. Simply "adjusting" them isn't possible like adjusting a rearview mirror.
