worst blizzard came with worst things happening in NY

I tried to turn my wiper to clean up some snow on my windshiled, the wiper washer tube/hose just craked and disconnected, how am I going to fix it, I hope it won't be costly

 

Its a thinwalled hose and ive onnly seen it at the dealer. It has o fit in the wiper arm and other hoses crush and wont work. Justgo to the dealer and tell them you need washer hose for the wiper, it comes in precut lengths

 

Do you think puting a connector to re-connect it will be a cheap solution?

 

If it broke in 1 area whats to stop it from doing it again? Sure it might work for awhile, i just prefer to fix things like new again

 

Vincent,

Brutal is correct. Besides, these parts are chump change compared to other parts on the car. Don't know your year or model (xj8 / xjr), but pick up a couple of the stiff plastic elbows that come through the plastic trim piece along the bottom of the window. Part number for 99 xj8 is GJA 8969 AB, I've had two of these break in winter months, the hose you mention should connect to this elbow if xj8. The dealer can pull up an exploded parts view for you to look at and order what you want.

I went to auto parts store and found a little fuel line hose kit for lawnmowers -- hose fit perfectly, but is clear, not black. Has been on over a year now, no problems.

 

I found some vacuum hose at NAPA that worked. Inner diameter the same, outer diameter a little more.
