Windshield washer leaking

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Since this happens when you use the washer, chances are one of the hoses came disconnected. Most often, the hose which attaches to a sprayer (the part you see on the outside of the vehicle) will come disconnected or the sprayer will break. Of course it can leak in other places as well. However, 99% of the time all that is required is to cut the damaged portion of the hose and to reconnect it.

With that in mind, open the hood. Have a helper actuate the washer pump. While that is happening, locate where the hose is leaking. Once you locate it, cut the bad portion off the hose and reconnect it where it belongs.

Please feel free to ask questions if you have them. Also, if you need to replace a portion of the hose, yes, you can purchase it at any parts store. If after you cut that bad part off you find the hose is too short, get a connector and the amount of new hose that is needed to reconnect. That way you don't have to replace the entire thing.

Take care and let me know what you find.
