Default Wipers are crazy

Whenever I'm driving my Accord...it's a 91 4 door LX....and I have the wipers on, they act crazy. When i'm above 40, they go off the windshield...just half of the drivers side one, that is. When I'm below 40 they act perfectly.

Just wondering if there's some kind of adjustment for them.

BTW, the car has 243,001 miles on it and it runs perrrrrrfect, I love the thing. It's my winter car so I don't have to get my Type R all salty. But I still take great care of it and I baby it as if it were the ITR.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You may want to check the bolts that the wipers go onto, make sure they are tight but not overtight, also if you want to take them off and see what the male end looks like, sometimes after years of use it will look stripped you may have to replace it via a new wiper motor. It will be a 10mm bolt (I think most of the car uses a 10mm) hope this helps.

Very good idea on the bolts. I'll just let the motor die, it doesn't hurt anything, just really annoying when you're used to normal wipers, lol.

Thanks for your input.
