How to align the headlight wiper?

My driver-side headlight wiper overextends past the headlight and I can't get it to reset at the proper angle like the passenger side. I've searched and can't find any tutorials on how to fix this issue?

Take it off and reposition it. Its installed on there like a steering wheel would be so you just have to pop it off and reposition it.

I have done that several times (remove the cover, undue the nut and re-position the wiper arm). Every time I do that, it resets in the same position, back below the headlight.

From further research, I've gotten the impression that it is the wiper motor itself?
