Default Another fault with 04 Sti passenger wiper?

Help another fault with Sti. my wipers work fine, but the passenger side wiper arm does not stop. So if i move the wiper down it will basically not stop and keep going down into the windscreen base. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Not sure but the whole arm basically drops down into the base of the windscreen if i lift up the wiper to say clear ice.

Remove the nut holding the wiper arm to the splined shaft and gently rock/pull the wiper arm off, don't be tempted to put anything under it and prise it off!! It's just trial and error till you get it on the right part of the splined shaft so it stops where you want it to. Just put the nut back on each time you try a different position, not too tight tho that you have to pull the wiper arm to get it off tho
