The water is coming out of the hose where it connects to the outlet on the dishwasher. I have removed the hose several times and can find to hole in the hose at the connection . It appears to be coming out of the bottom of the hose at the connection.Can you help me?

The connection dose not have any threads. The rubber hose connects using a C-clamp and it connects to a plastic fitting which is slotted on top and bottom. I have inspectec the hose and cannot find any tears or punctures. The dishwasher is a Maytag. I have had the hose off several times and it still leaks. I have ordered a new hose, but I kinda doubt that is the problem.
