The hose that supplies the windshield cleaning solution to the windshield wipers broke off in the body of the coach. It looks like the tip of the hose is still in the opening. Does anyone know how this goes in, is it friction fit, does it screw in or what? The hose is still attached to the wiper, the hose has a smaller diameter end that is thicker rubber and harder than the hose itself. It looks like this is what broke off, but I don't know if the end in the body is threaded. A fellow from a detail service told me i should be able to pop it out with a knife. No doing. Any

Can you get to the back side? If you can, push the hose out, snip off the broken connector and replace it. Those little connectors are available at your local parts store. If the hose can not be pushed thru, you could drill a hole straight thru and then connect. On my Hurricane, the hose just slides thru a hole drilled in the fiberglass. It then has a little plastic elbow installed in the rubber cover.
 
Good suggestion. it is located on the what would be the hood of a car, it opens up to get to the generator. I followed the hose from the reservoir to the point where it goes through the hood to the outside. It feels like a hard plastic nipple or fitting that goes through the metal. First and second try I could not budge it with the lack of leverage reaching up. Feels solid, like it froze over time or was glued in place
