Rear window wiper hose fitting snapped

[LSW]

Sorry, searched for this and couldn’t find it:

on my ‘23 outer banks the plastic fitting on the rear tailgate glass wiper fluid hose snapped off causing the wiper fluid hose to dangle loosely. I don’t know what caused this, could’ve been baggage back there or just a lot of bumpy roads?

ofc I am under warranty but the only dealer within an hour drive of me (Anchorage) can only get me in by April (5 months) and that’s just for a consultation so they can actually fix it later!

There is another dealer a long drive away who can get me sooner but by the time I factor gas and time it might make sense to attempt this myself, if possible.

Does anyone know the correct part to order and/or a procedure or other thread to reference? It looks like I need the rear wiper fluid hose. Then I have to remove a trim panel above the tailgate glass as well as a left side trim panel to route the hose.

You’d have to get that specific section of hose. They don’t offer the fitting.

Thanks @Ducati1098 ! In the meantime I attempted a krazy glue and slicon repair, will give it 24 hours to cure and see if it works without leakage. Side benefit is loosening up the fitting that's embedded in the window allows you to tilt the water spray more toward the center instead of dumping out straight down on the passenger side.

You're better off just plugging that into the side hole and forgetting that entire assembly exists.

@Ducati1098 - do you have a part number for where the washer hose plugs into the rear trim panel on a 4 door? mine seems to have disappeared and hoping to get a part number to get it replaced

I’m not sure I understand what you mean by plugs into the rear trim panel. Do you see it in the diagram I posted above?

there is a little plug in the driver's side panel in cargo area where the washer hose plugs in when the top is off. it is right above where the wiring harness plugs into when the top is off. here is a pic for reference

Yup. That's what I did when I broke mine trying to put 40" tires in the back.

Thank you as always for your help @Ducati1098!!

My krazy glue fix blew apart immediately when I shot water through it so I took it to the dealer and they did a nice job fixing it under warranty. It’s possible it got damaged from contacting cargo as my wife does some over landing and stuffs it pretty full.

Try taking off the spring clip that secures the white plastic fitting to the squirter assembly, removing the fitting, and slipping the hose over the nipple. It's vent to atmosphere/lower pressure so that should be good enough.

Have to bump this up as i unfortunately broke the part that goes through the glass on mine this weekend. Looking at the diagram @Ducati1098 posted it looks like it’s part number 17603, but how do I get the broken part out of the house? I got the black sleeve part off the white piece but it doesn’t want to budge from the hose. Thanks!

Probably going to need some small needle nose pliers or a small pick to pull it out.
