Same happened to me and I wound up using two zip ties to secure it in place. Works just like normal.

I found some on eBay for $8. It’s called a lower hose latch on there.

Shark doesn’t sell a replacement. I designed one and put it up on eBay for $8 plus shipping. I send two pieces (since it’s easy to break it while installing) and a replacement spring, since those tend to go flying. People seem pretty happy with them.

Makes me mad when companies don’t sell a replacement for small, easily breakable parts on relatively expensive items. Just adds to the landfills.

There is someone on ebay who apparently made the piece and sell them for $8.00 plus shipping. However I also used a wide heavy zip tide and it works perfectly.

Speaking of which, did the part work for you, Major?
The clip without the spring actually worked and held the elbow in place I would use it in combination with a zip tie to insure the elbow seats properly

It’s called a rear hose swivel valve and latch.
Shark does not sell it. Found it used for 40. Knock off for 28. Crazy prices. Have not purchased.
this is the item

@kak708 will not buy from shark again if I cannot get parts to fix it, mine broke also I do not like to half ass fix things.
Hose reel swivel spring. Took me days to find out what that part was called
