Hi Joe,

Mine began parking in mid sweep this winter after I turned them on with the blades frozen to the windshield. After checking everything else, it turned out that the parking cam had slipped on it's mount.

I looked through Art's site and saw where there were index marks with felt marker. I don't know if the marks are original, but I couldn't find any on mine so I had to try a few different positions before I got it right.

Seems that if you're not seeing an improvement with a change of unit, your problem is likely elsewhere, but it wouldn't hurt to move the cam to another position and see what effect it has.

I should add that when monkeying with it, I found one mounting bolt missing and another one loose. That couldn't have been doing it any good.

regards,
Peter
