Greetings and Happy Thanksgiving (a day late).

Have a question about my daughter's 1996 960. Here in New Mexico recently we have been having light showers - just enough to get the windshield dirty. My daughter complained the other day that her washer did not work (and finally admitted it never had since she got the car last summer). I filled up the reservoir and the fluid seemed to run out as fast as I could fill it. Looking down at the base I saw the problem - it appears a hose has come off the reservoir right next to the pump and the washer fluid was pouring out. I did try to trace the tubing to see if I could find where the missing tube was but had no luck. If I cover the 'spout' then washer fluid comes out (barely) from the squirters when the lever is pulled.

Does anyone have hints as to how the tubing routes? I know two of the tubes go to the front headlights and, of course, one(at least)has to go to the squirters. I was hoping to avoid having to take apart things to figure it out.

Also, concerning the headlight wipers - when we bought the car the wipers were missing - arms and all. I am not having much luck finding them around here (haven't tried the dealer). When the wipers are replaced does one replace the whole arm? Any ideas of where these can be ordered and approximate cost?

Thanks for all the insight.
