2 suggestions:

1st, the wiper arms need to be removed completely, turn on ignition, operate wipers and turn wipers off, wait for wipers to park, turn off ignition, refit wiper blades in correct positions and test.

 

other option

 

remove wiper arms completely, remove trim panel above wiper motor and gain access to wiper motor linkage. Check linkages and make sure not bent.....this is a common occurance when wipers operated and blades frozen with ice to screen. If linkage is bent you will probably be able to straigten it to improve the situation.
