You let the washers fall out of the hoses. Go to the hardware store and buy a pack of garden hose washers.

I had the same problem with mine when I moved. The moving will shack up the washer to some degree and cause some deposits to break loose. What I did on mine is I cleaned out the "cone screen" just inside the hose, then replaces the washers on both ends of both hoses. That solved my problem with mine. But you might also want to replace the 2 hoses as well if this don't solve your problem. But even with the new hoses if you have to go to that point, make sure that you do put in new washers. I would say that more than likely it is the washers that need to be replaced.

The filter screen for the inlet might be plugged.They come with a washer on them.They look like little wire cones.What ever the problem(I am leaning towards the bad hose) If you can, use Teflon tape where you can.One other thing to check is if the hose fitting is cracked.

do u have new washers installed? that maybe what is causeing the problem and old ones might be cracked all so look at the connectors are they cracked use a bright flashlight and have someone look and see while you slowly turn on the water. loosening the connectors and retightening them might have damaged them check them out too. also you might have to get new hoses for the washer, but most likely you need new washers they are cheap

IF YOU PUT IN GOOD WASHERS AND THE HOSES DON'T HAVE A SPLIT IT WON'T LEAK AT THAT CONNECTION. THAT IS FOR SURE. IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT A BAD HOSE.

You might need a new gasket inside where it screws onto the back of the washer, make sure you haven't over tightened and cracked the fitting.

probly just a bad connection. Take them off, and wrap the male end with teflon tape. (usually white...comes on a spool like normal tape. and hardware store will have it.) Just wrap them up, and put em back together. If this doesn't work, then get new hoses, because one of them is likely cracked.

If it's leaking at the quick disconnect, it contains an o-ring and it needs replacing.
