Faucet leaking or dripping between the sprayhead and hose. This troubleshooting document relates to single-handle faucets with a pull-out or pull-down sprayhead.
Description of Issue: With this issue, you might experience water leaking from where the sprayhead and pull-out hose connect or water running down the pull-out hose under the sink.
Cause
