the park tab is bent. it is a thick piece of metal that must be bent back slightly toward the wiper motor with a hammer or plyers.
I assume this issue started when there was snow/ice on the windshield?
first remove wiper arms from vehicle next with ignition on, turn wipers on then off. the wiper motor will stop at the down position. replace wiper arms onto shaft ,in the correct down position where you want them. now with ignition on, try wipers again,to check if in the stop position you want them.
A bad pulse board or window wiper motor can cause your wipers to stay in the "up" position.
wiper motor bout worn out. my 1998 merc does the same. replace ya wiper motor.
The car wipers should not stay up but return to their original position. The wipers will stay up if the wiper motor, the wiper controller and the wiper linkage are faulty.
bad parking relay in motor
why is it after I hooked up the linkage for my wipers the wipers stay in the upright position after I turn them off.
the windsheild wiper motor clutch/windlatch is broken

the module is bad on the wipper motor you might have to get the whole moter assy.
1. Turn on the rear windshield wipers. 2. Stop the wiper manually as it crosses the center of the window. 3. Lift the wiper blade up on the hinge as you would a front blade (this should de-activate the wiper mechanism and stop movement). 4. Change wiper blade. 5. Return blade to original position in which it was stopped. 6. Turn the wipers off then on.
when u turn wipers off they stay at up position. while in up position remove wiper arms from vehicle then place wiper arms at down position and renistall on wiper motor shaft. that should fix the problem
The wiper system has a stopping point on the motor, or a rest position. If your wipers are straight up then the wiper control arms are set wrong. go through the entire wiper system, looking for loos bolts or joints or bolts. The motor seems good, its just an adjustment issue.
