Ive just fitted anew wiper motor and park switch, now my wipers park on the drivers side. Is it as simple as wiring back to front?

Is it the correct motor for the Chim? It sounds like the trigger for the park switch is it the wrong place on the main drive gear...

Im struggling to visualise the wiper sweep if they park on the drivers side, are they only doing half a sweep?

BEFORE coupling the motor to the cable, run the motor so it is in the parked position, set the wiper arms to the parked position, then you can put the two together.

Surely if the wipers follow the correct path on the screen then the sweep and the gearbox are correct - it then has to just be the park switch actuation cam that's wrong, no?

Same problem here - can someone post a pic of the connector block so I can check my wiring?
