So, I got up this morning and noticing I'd run out of fluid when I went to use my washers on the trip home last night, I filled the washer bottle up.

Imagine my delight when It ran straight out the bottom of the car and onto my left foot!

Repeating the procedure, I filled it up and quickly tried the washers before it had chance to empty. Nothing. So I'm guessing the hose has come disconnected where it joins the offside washer bottle.

Being a pretty handy sort of person with a screwdriver, anyone know what I need to do to access the thing? The whole thing seems to be surrounded by plastic and I can't work out how to get at it.

Cheers!

i'd imagine you'd have to remove the o/s wheel arch liner to have a proper look?
