Hi:
I'm not sure I understand. Is there too much travel?

Hi:
Now I understand. The linkage for the wipers is under the cowl panel (at the base of the windshield exterior). Remove the cowl to access the linkage and I feel confident that you'll find the problem there. It sounds like something is coming apart.

Let me know what you find.
