Default fridge water dispensor question

I purchased a used side by side fridge with water & ice dispenser. It
appears to work but the water sprays out all over the place. I took apart
the door dispenser cover and it looks like either the line broke at the very
top and does not come down enough or there is a piece missing that plugs in
to the line. Does anyone know how this normally works? I don't know if the
line should be pulled down. (it doesn't seem to budge so I don't want to
force it.) or if the line was broken and use to come down another 2 inches
or if there is another connecter that hooks to the hose that is there and
extends another couple inches down.

Its an Amana fridge.

Thanks for any insight.

Then I'd get the model number and go to Amana's website and find a
parts diagram. Also, many of the online appliance parts stores have
pictures/diagrams of the various assemblies.

Yea that was the first thing I tried. Here is the diagram. I don't see the
hose at all coming out at the dispenser.

Thanks a lot. Amana is made by Maytag. I guess when u buy with the Maytag
name you get better photos.

It looks like I can just go to homedepot and buy a reducer for the tube
thats there and add another 2 inches of smaller tubing to come down and it
should work.

Wish me luck.
