Let me Begin by saying thank you to the contributors on this forum! Y'all have been very helpful to me. I'm not a mechanical guy, but with YouTube and this forum I have been able to get things done! (My wife is impressed and thinks I'm smart...she doesn't know y'all exist!&#128526

Today I replaced the AIC {automatic idle control} motor on my 2001 F150 SuperCrew 4 wheel drive 5.4 V8. While doing the repair I broke a washer fluid hose at a connection. The hose slips over a hard plastic connection and the whole thing snapped...see pic. I broke my washer fluid line. (The rubber hose slips over a nozzle but the nozzle broke off in the hose.) I would like to know what this part is called so that I can replace it.

I would be glad to replace the entire piece but I don't know what it's called, neither does my auto parts store. Any help would be appreciated. I'm open to quick fixes from some of you smart guys too. Thanks for taking time to help me with my problem.

If you mean the part where the fluid sprays out of it's called a windshield washer nozzle.

thanks for replying, the the break is definitely under the hood somewhere between the pump and the nozzle. Are you able to see the photo?

 

So I replaced the AIC and the check engine light went out. But now the idle is going up and down again? Next?

 

Yes I am but it only shows you holding one end of a hose, it doesn't show where it's supposed to go. So to me it looks like it was supposed to go up to a nozzle on the hood just up off the top of the picture.

 

It may be hard to see in the picture, but I am actually holding the hose to the nozzle, or whatever, that it broke off from.
