It would appear that my rear windscreen washer has stopped working.

I think it's either the hose has come loose or it's burst somewhere as when I press the lever to scoosh some water it runs out of the bit where the rear seat belt attaches to the top of the car.

Anyone know how to take this to bits to get a look to see whats wrong. I'm hoping the connector has come loose at the spolier and I just need to reattach it.

anyone help.

Well that's it fixed.

The hose had split between in the black pipe that goes between car and boot. Joined it back up and I can now see out of my rear window again.

Which will do absolutely nothing. If it was a problem with current then the fuse would blow.

Putting a bigger fuse in will only increase the chance of your car going up in flames.

I suggest you get a second opinion.
