Most wiper assemblies have a built in switching mechanism that keeps the wiper motor running until the blade is in the "home" position. If that mechanism fails and the wiper assembly is unable to detect the home position, the motor will just keep running.
It's usually easier to just get a new wiper assembly rather than fighting the old one.
