My washer hose tee connector has two holes on the top. I'm not sure if the previous owner did this or if this is normal but should it be replaced? Everytime I run the washer fluid it sprays out of the holes instead of to my washer nozzles.

Hi there,

if you block off the open "T" do both nozzles work? I think one nozzle hose may have come off, check around the fitting it may be there to be plugged back on.

No, The hose running from my reservoir is fine and plugged in. Also both nozzles hoses are fine and plugged in, but there are 2 other small holes on the top of the "T" that sprays fluid onto my hood. There is no way to plug these holes and all of the connections are fine.

Hi there,

I would be thinking that the "T" piece has just fatigued and is cracking, you should be able to get a new fitting from you local dealer, you would hope that they would fit this FOC.
