I am wondering if anyone can help.

Driving to work this morning, it started raining hard. I put on my windscreen wipers and the driver side wiper seemed to get stuck, then move in a strange way. I have just looked at it but it dosent sit right anymore. It is sitting lower than the passenger side wiper. I can't see how to sort it out.

Please help!

You should be able to pull up the plastic cowling at the base of the wiper thus revealing a nut holding the wiper arm on.
undo this nut and the arm will pull off the splined spindle.
just align the arm where you want it to be and push it back onto the spindle in the new position...replace the nut and tighten and flip the cover back over and click it into place.
Careful not to move it too far as on the upswing it will go past your windscreen and hit your A pillar.
