Screen wash leaks headlight washer problem?

Basically, you need to remove all the screenwash components to figure out exactly whats gone wrong.

To do this, the easiest and best thing to do is remove the front bumper. Then you'll have loads of room to see and diagnose the problem.

Hi Ben is it easy enough to remove that bumper? as I was under the impression that it was tricky! If I got the bumper off then filled the screen wash bottle should I then be able to see where the problem lies regarding leaking?

RJS wow! Thanks for that detailed reply, but my headlight washers work fine and both pop up and spray nicely, my problem is that if I fill the screen wash bottle up and don't use the spray onto the screen and just leave the car parked up all of the water drains from the resoirvoir so I then can't clean the windscreen

Thanks. I have this issue on the near side so will give your instructions a go.
