Default Not your usual wiper blade position problem...

Hey Peoples,
So, my new to me gs400's windshield wipers are in an akward position. The driver side wiper is in the high position, and the passenger side wiper is tucked underneath the hood. The research that i've done on this kick *** website indicates that if someone should change the blade positions, they needed to be done at the same time from the passenger side of the car. Am I wrong on this? If i wanted to put the passenger side blade in the high position, i just need to change that one particular blade correct? I know this kinda sounds like a dumb question, but i'd rather sound like an idiot than wreck something on my gs. Then moving forward i can push them up/down at the same time from the passenger side... right?

Thanks in advance!
KG

with my vehicle when you pick up one side to the high position both of them pops up to the high position.
it does not go up one by one. did u try to bring down both to the low position then raise them up again? you can re-align it by raising both to the upwards, open the hood and remove the arm itself and reposition to see if that fixes it. but it should not go up one by one if i recall.
