Vauxhall Signum windscreen wipers wont park in correct place?

I recently had to change the fuse on my wipers as they had stopped working, since then they will not park in the corect place, they stop right infront of the drivers face on the windscreen, does anyone know why?

if they are stopping in same place each time since fuse blew then i would suspect that crank arm on motor has slipped, with ign off and wipers parked as now slacken wiper motor crank arm nut,manually put blades in correct park position and re tighten nut, should park ok now [dont try to re position by slackening wiper arms as you may find that wipers will try to clear bonnet!] KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF MOVING LINKAGE.
