Wiper stopping halfway up the windscreen

Hey all, just fitted a new wiper motor and linkages and when we run the wipers and turn them off they finish halfway up the windscreen rather than the bottom, even though they appear to have the full range of motion . Any ideas why that would be?

    Does the motor have a spline that the linkages etc bolt on to? If yes then once the motor has stopped in the off positions remount the linkages so the wipers are at the bottom.
