How can i repair the windscreen washer reservior on my 1998 mondeo 1.8?

When i activate the screen wash the washer pump is working but the water is'nt being pumped up the tube, but instead is being pumped to the road - i guess the tube is split or detached; is it easy to get at to repair?

The pump is located at the base of the wash bottle on the right hand side. (btw i have just got the same prob) There is a long panel running along the bottom of the front of the car which needs to be removed. Once access is gained you need to pull a bet of slack on the tube to fit it back in, release some of the clips from the top to allow you to pull through. I did all this and the washer has stopped working DOH!!! You wouldnt know where the fuse for the washer is would you??
