Windshield wipers problem

Hi there.


Today's morning it was cold - 15 degrees by fahrenheit. I started an engine and went to clean windshield from ice by hand ice/snow removal shovel. When I've done - sat back in the car and push windshield fluid paddle to let wipers remove that pieces of snow and ice. Bu I forgot that wipers probably were frozen to the windshield. So the motor started to turn wipers and it did that. The wipers unstucked and start to move but only for one cycle. I know that it is normal to push the fluid paddle and wipers execute two cycles if I don't push more.


So I noticed that I broke my wipers mechanics.


For now wipers unpark, execute one cycle, mayve execute another one if delay was chosen and park if I turn int off. But something wrong with wipers when I use fluid paddle - wipers unpark, execute only one cycle and park back. Also I noticed that the park position now is little higher than it was earlier, the ready position of wipers is higher too.


Did I put out of tune the wipers mechanics?


Tonight I'm goint to try to fix that issue and need your advice. Thank you!


Also, can this video below help me to setup wipers right?
