I believe what you're asking is, how you put the new wiper arms in the correct spot after taking the old ones off? If that's it, I believe that you must put the wipers in a spot you will remember (like straight up, or down). Or mark it on the windshield with a bar of soap, and don't put the key in the ignition until you've got the new ones on and ready. I've never done it, so other input is appreciated.

Ahh, I think I see what is happening here. What it sounds like is that the cam for the wipers is bent and not stopping/parking them at the bottom as they should. This can be fixed w/ no parts usually. You need to pull the wiper cowl and the cover to the wiper transmission on the drivers side. You will see a small tab in there. Bend it back down a bit and cycle the wipers. They should do one sweep and then catch that stop on the cam and park at the bottom. If not, then bend it down a bit more. I just used a hammer and small flat punch to fix mine. Been working fine ever since.
Do a search for "wiper stuck in up position" or something along those lines. This is a common issue.
