I am in 20 degree weather. This morning I went out to use the windshield wipers before I pulled away from my parking spot. No fluid made it on to the windshield.

A closer look and I saw some fluid squirted at the base of both wipers. The fluid actually runs through the wipers, then onto the windshield. The fluid does not run out of a spout set under the windshield.

The passenger side now works after I tugged a bit on the hose leading into the wiper on the passenger side. But the drivers side has a pinhead size hole in the wiper hose at the base of the wiper.

Should I attempt to repair it, if so, how? The hole is in a tight spot so I would probably need to take the hose out of the wiper to duck tape it.

I never had this occur. Or do I need new hose for the drivers side? Or for both sides since the fluid runs from the reservoir then bypasses the drivers side before it gets to the passenger side? Thanks

It's called duct tape. Duct. Not Duck.

You're welcome. :)

As for your hose question, I've got no idea.
