Do the arms stop where they were the moment you turn them off..or you turn them off and they 'park' upright? Wipers have a 'parking timer' to stow them when shut off. I'm trying to find a picture of one

Looking around the consensus is the multi-function switch for the wipers on the stalk...in either case. OR..the module click for full screen
