Well the other day at the servo i was putting some pressure in the water squiter tank.. I put the amount of pressure labeled on the tank and closed the bonnet.

I reach into the car to get my money to pay for the fuel, and whats this? Running water? Coming from under the dash??? AARGH!

So yeah, long story short, the water tank dumped its load inside the car...

Where do i start looking to see what happened? Im assuming i somehow over-pressured the water tank and blew something...

The hoses from the bottle go up to the indicator assembly where the switch is. The hoses split there and leak. Replace the rubber hose and all should be good
