I have a Delta kitchen faucet. The model number is 400-DST-L (Delta Classic Chrome)
The sprayer hose wore out at the sprayer end.
I got a new sprayer assembly directly from Delta:
IRP60097: Diamond Seal Technology Vegetable Spray.
The male connector end of the sprayer appears to fit the existing diverter housing, but I was unable to install the sprayer correctly. I disconnected the old one, mounted the new one
on the sink, and followed the directions to insert the hose end connector into
the diverter housing. After I reattached the blue clip and turned the water
on, the water pressure caused the hose to pop out of the housing. I tried
repeatedly to reconnect it, but it wouldn't hold under pressure, even with the
clip in place. It did not appear that there was anything structurally capable
of keeping the two parts together under pressure, including the blue clip. On
my last attempt, the blue clip snapped in two.
I just got a new blue clip from Delta, but I would like some pointers on what to look for as I'm clipping it on. It needs to engage and keep the two parts together under pressure.
Can anyone help me with this?
