Default Windshield wiper motor replaced

I replaced the motor on the windshield wiper control assembly but can't get the wiper blades to work right. They stop in the middle of the windshield or go to the bottome of the windshield and stay.

Anyone have a suggestion how to align the blades?

Thank you for your help.

Pull both arms off, then toggle the wipers to run back and forth twice. This will set the position of the mounting 'nubs' at their lowest spot. After that, it's just a matter of placing the wiper arms in the proper down location. It may help to place them, but not bolt them on, and sit in the drivers seat to make a visual inspection. Make adjustments if necessary. Tighten them up and give them a try.
