Rear Wiper
Recently I washed my Explorer and lifted the rear wiper to clean underneath it. After I was finished, I turned on the rear wiper. It works, but instead of swiping the window, not it goes backwards and ends up pointing down and sitting on the rear door. Is there an adjustment to fix this issue?

Hmm, just lifting the wiper away from the window shouldn't have cause this, but you may just need to re-index the wiper arm. Pull the wiper arm off the toothed motor shaft, run the rear wiper for a few cycles before turning it off and allowing it to "park." Then re-install the wiper arm into the correct parked location and snug up the nut holding the arm in place.
