💦 LEAKY💦 Kohler Kitchen Faucet EASY FIX WITHOUT CURSING🤬 | PULL OUT Hose REPLACEMENT

If you have one of those pull down kitchen faucets, sometimes the braided hose springs a leak. Sure you could wrap some tape over it but it looks horrible and it won't be able to retract back in. This type of fix is more of a replacement since the hose is not repairable. Its cheap and only takes about 5 minutes. Let me show you my struggles so you won't have to. This process is similar to other brands and not just @kohler. Let me know if you have any questions in the comment section. I ALWAYS reply back.

You can actually use the hose weight (note, the separate "weight" assembly that fits around the hose) to push up against the white plastic collet, while you simultaneously pull out on the hose, with a slight twisting motion. Simply slide the weight along the hose and push the weight right up against the collet. Using one of your hands, push the weight up against the plastic collet, and use your other hand to pull and twist out the hose assembly. Works like a charm. You may not even need to use some WD-40, first, on the collet joint. However, if it doesn't come out quickly and smoothly, definitely apply the WD-40, and let it sit for 15 minutes. Then, try again.

I was really stuck until I found this video - thank you for posting it!

[eddiesmiles]

This video was SO helpful in laying out the whole process and its struggles. And the tip another commenter said about using the weight as leverage to disconnect the pesky collet was a game changer. Thanks to you both!

[kpennock]

This video was the greatest! Rarely can I find a realistic video that really explains what to do when the going gets tough. This one did. I watched a dozen or more videos that skipped over all the hard parts and made me feel like an idiot. I watched this video and we were able to replace the hose in 10 mimutes or less. The two hardest parts of this little project were the exact two spots that this video spent the time on. Thanks!!!

[dk.]

This is far from easy, but thank you so much for videotaping it and providing so much detail. After watching this, I know I’m going to hire a plumber versus doing it myself but at least I have a lot of knowledge and can make sure it’s done correctly.

[RoxyRoth]

Saved me from buying a new $800 faucet + $400 plumber bill! This video was a life saver. I had less space to work in than the video, but was able to release the hose connection with pliers while pushing up with a screwdriver on the collet. THANK YOU!!

[christinehubbard]

This is the only video that got me through it. You’re a gem!

[Streamside]

Instructions were great, thanks so much for not glossing over the tricky bits.

[AdamKuban]

Thanks for this. Getting ready to do this repair again and wanted to get a refresher. Weirdly, I didn't have trouble with the collet the first time I replaced this hose but read nightmare stories when ordering it for the second time. Hoping I don't have to struggle, but now I know what to do in that event.

[discerner]

First of all... I learned my faucet was a Kohler lol I already ordered an aftermarket hose (59"), and canceled the order.
I was able to find the product ($20+ on Amazon) knew what problem to POSSIBLY expect, and fortunately, my hose came off easily without any special tools.
The job was done within minutes!
Thanks for the great video!

[danielfeldman]

Wow! Was trying to do this for days. Watched your video and got it right away. Lifesaver. Thank you!

[cravenk]

What a great detailed video! My thumb is still in pain from pulling that darn hose out! And thanks for the part about installing the new hose on the curved faucet 👍🙌

[eugenewhite]

Great video. Exactly what I needed and glad you showed there was an o-ring to remove as well. Unfortunately, my collet was broken once I got the hose out and could not be re-used. I ordered a replacement hose from amazon and asked if it came with a replacement collet. People answered "no, it does not". Ughh, not what I wanted to hear when buying a replacement hose. I'm still waiting for the hose to arrive and hoping it actually does but went ahead and ordered the collet with o-ring kit for a couple bucks.

[karri]

I didn't know that the faucet unscrewed from the hose. I tightened my faucet, and my leak went away. Now, if my hose leaks, I'll know what to do. Fantastic watch!

[rjrivera]

Great video! Especially the part about taking the hose off. I would’ve been screwed.

[rubixmania]

Thank you so much for your video. We had a friend trying to push the hose into the faucet and it wasn't working so I found your video and we're in! Thanks because otherwise I would have to call that plumber. OMGosh, too much money.

[Heat]

Same problem on my 15 year older Koehler kitchen faucet. The faucet has a life time guarantee! Called Koehler there sending me a new one no charge. Bought a new collet and washer-$1.85 on line.

[squaresphere]

Thank you so much for putting this together. It's the exact type of guide I was looking for.

[georgehotelling]

Thank you, the hose grip pliers did the trick. Eventually. But at least I didn't have to pull it out of the countertop to replace it. I appreciate you.

[chunkin]

The street fighter "perfect" was great. Awesome video.
