6. A method of operating a windshield wiper system (WWS), the method comprising: driving a wiper blade assembly, which comprises a wiper arm and a wiper blade attached to the wiper arm, across a windshield of a vehicle along a first sweep angle by a controller; monitoring a position of an internal wiper trigger coupled to the wiper blade assembly and disposed to move with the wiper blade assembly from which a corresponding position of the wiper blade assembly relative to the first sweep angle is measurable; outputting a sweep angle feedback signal corresponding to results of the monitoring to the controller; and controlling the driving of the wiper blade assembly by the controller in accordance with at least the sweep angle feedback signal; wherein the internal wiper trigger is coupled to the wiper arm; wherein the monitoring comprises measuring the position of the internal wiper trigger, and the sweep angle feedback signal corresponds to the position of the internal wiper trigger; wherein the internal wiper trigger moves with the wiper blade assembly along a second sweep angle, which is the same as the first sweep angle, and sensors configured to execute the monitoring are positioned proximate to opposite ends of the second sweep angle.
