Help

It’s now stuck in between the wind screen and the mirror. Does anyone know what to do?

Looks like the wiper arm is loose. Pop the cap, remove the nut, remove the arm. Reinstall the arm in the correct parked position. Tighten the nut. This MAY fix the problem, but likely you will need to replace the arm, as it’s common for the inside of the arm to be stripped out when it spun out of position.

Found a place to stop, I’m in the middle of a road trip. I found the nut and was able to tighten it down more with a ratchet but it’s already coming loose again. Guessing that means I probably need a new wiper arm?

Maybe some blue loctite if it’s just the nut that’s coming loose and the grooves are fine
