Windscreen Washers issue

Sorry if this as been covered before couldn't find it, washers stopped working the pump still makes noise,
noticed water under the car when engaging washers, then i noticed when removing battery cover water is spraying removed battery and found the 3 pipes 1 of them was split and fell apart in my hand,
so my question is how easy of a fix is it i have got 10m 6mm rubber tube and some push in connectors any help on how to locate and change them would be great
thanks

Check the washer hose leading from the engine bay to the bonnet is ok, also the nozzles tend to deteriorate and instead of spraying out onto the windscreen might just leak onto the engine bay under the bonnet. Might need to get under the car and remove engine cover to locate pipes as they run under and along the side of the engine from the washer bottle at the front. Good workshop should sort this out easily as it needs the car lifted to access the hoses easily.

The washer bottle and its pumps are accessed by removing the passenger side wheel arch lining. Unless you can identify a specific reason why the hose has deteriorated to that extent in that location you would have to suspect all of it.

The "split" is not of concern but falling apart may indicate something has attacked the hose.
