You'll have to remove the cover and inspect the linkage to find out what has come apart.

Double check that the wiper arm itself didn't get loose.

There is a nut holding the arm to the wiper transmission. They will become loode. Pull the little plastic cover up on the bottom of the arm and tighten the nut. Can't remember if it is a 13 mm or a 15 mm nut.

Make sure you have it in the "park" position when you tighten that if it happens to be loose.
