One of my hoses has a small leak at the fitting. It leaks when wiggled. The hoses appear to be hooked together at the compressor end. Can you replace just one or do you buy a new assembly with two hoses and a new end?

You may just need new o rings if the leak is not from the hose itself...

If it isn't the O-ring then take it to a place that repairs hoses. My local independent auto parts store repairs them. They will reuse the fittings (ends) and replace just the hose portion.

A replacement is available and is about $150.00
