I have an issue with my rear wiper arm. I have ordered a new arm since the old spring was toasted and didn't press enough the wiper.
When I unscrewed the nut, it was VERY tight, I had to use a pair of channelocks to hold the shaft in place while I was wrenching the nut off. I might have pushed it below the rest place, but I thought it came back.

Now, the missing center patch was fixed, but I think that is not wiping the whole stroke - it stops at some 130 degree angle.
Is there some adjustment for that that I messed up during install?
 






I took a picture. Thanks to the salt, the difference is very clear between the old position and the new one.
Any ideas?
