Windshield Washer Fluid Coming Out of Hood

[SHolmes]

Every time I use my windshield washer it comes out the front drivers side of my hood, from the inside....

Can anyone point me to a diagram for the windshield washer fluid system? If you have any idea what might be causing this, I would love to hear it!

Thanks in advance!

Not much to diagram. Hose runs into hood and into the driver's side nozzle, then on the pass side nozzle. Prob one of the hoses cam off the nozzle.

It is not a hose that popped off. It would be nice to know how everything is routed before I go tearing into things as my RX-7 is taking up my garage space and I'll have to work outside in the gravel to fix this. I'm guessing a line developed a hole somehow and will likely need replaced

There's not much too it. Hose comes up from the bottom of the fluid tank in the backside of the front left wheel well, goes into the hood on the left side, connects to the two nozzles mounted on the hood. Open the hood and run the washer, is it draining out of the hood around the left or right nozzle set. It's literally just those three parts.

You don't really say, do you get a normal spray on the windshield, you just also get this leak at the hood? Or are you getting no spray onto the windshield? If the former, there's either a leak in the cable, in the nozzle assembly, or at the join between the two. If the latter, then the nozzles are clogged.

It is coming out of the nozzle and coming out of the hood. I've looked at everything I can without tools and couldn't find what is causing it. I should be in a new house next month and will finally have the garage space to dig into it.

Are the hoses one piece from the reservoir to the nozzles or do they have connections other than at the reservoir and nozzles?

Thanks for your help guys!

My nozzles were hosed when I bought this. So I got a couple from Wolf Auto parts. Yes, just one hose between the nozzles. Nothing to it. The nozzles just snap in. I think you just squeeze the hoses to pull them off. It's butt simple. You probably just lost one of the balls in a nozzle and all the pressure is blowing out of one sprayer.

[SHolmes]

But is it one hose per nozzle or is it one hose for both nozzles? If it is just one hose, I am assuming there is an issue at the Y

Sholmes you are really over thinking this. Just take it apart. There's no Y. One hose to the drivers side nozzle, another between the nozzles.
