Headlight Washer leak

I fixed a crack in the washer fluid tank today, filled it up and fluid was pouring out of the front bumper. I'm assuming that the hose to the nozzle is cracked/broken. Is it easy to get to this connection? If so, how? Any help would be appreciated.

where from the bumper? by fixing the crack did you crack it somewhere else possibly, the headlight washer should be a open flow until you use the switch and turn the pump.

From what I could see from under the car, no water was coming from the tank, but it was pouring from inside the bumper. There's a hose that comes from the pump on the bottom of the tank into the bumper.

If got w/w liquid leaking in the pumper this is no brainer the hose connecting to h/w/ noozle is probably crack & leaking or loose at the noozle ,it did not leak before because you had a crack in your winshield water tank & no pressure going in the h/w noozle.

My guest is that you'll have to pull the bumper off but make sure you don't remove it completely once the retaining bolts are off just pull enougth on it so that you will have some room to get your hands in there ,if you never did remove the bumper before if you look underneath it there is two access holes you'll have two remove those 2 bolts use a ratchet with an extension on it since they are a little deep in there. here a pic of how the hoses run in there ,hope it help & if somebody else here have done it before will you chip in please.
