Assuming the wipers were properly parked when the motor was last turned off, then the first picture shows the correct orientation. The stub arm is in line with the long arm, not doubled back as the seen in the last two pictures. 

To check after assembly, don’t put the wiper arms on the splines, just turn the motor on and watch it run. Turn it off and let it park. Then put a little masking tape flag on one spline in place of a wiper arm and turn on the motor, and watch the tape flag to see if its doing the right thing when running and when parked. THEN you can feel confident putting the real arms on and letting it run. 

I have in the past done this wrong, put the wiper arms on and had them crash into the wiper cowl spoiling a nice fresh paint job, so I always use the flag method after re-assembling this mechanism.

Yo z.  If you look close all three photos are the same.  The wiper are is doubled back in all three photos.   So you are thinking doubled back is not the way to start it. It should be fully extended then connected to the motor nut??  I’m just trying to not do this twice.

There's a drawing in the FSM.  It's in the Body Electrical chapter.

Fsm does not show which way rid gets connected to motor.  Thought someone may have done it recently or someone remembers.
