    Do you mean the bowl, where you sit, or the tank where you flush? I'm betting you mean tank so please clarify. Usually the fill valve tube has come loose in the tank.

    Hello Ckreft,

    Please respond to Talaniman for clarification, if it is the tank please see the images below will show you the fill tube and how it should be attached to the overflow pipe, Thanks.

    I assume water sprays out from under the tank lid. Easy fix. Lift up the lid, there is a refill tube ( 1/4" black flexible tube connecting fill valve and overflow tube ), that probably slipped out of its mount. Point it back into the overflow tube and / or attach it to the mounting clip.

    There is also a possibility water sprays from cracked fill valve. If that is so, you will have to replace the entire fill valve

    Hope that helps
