This rubber tube can become disconnected from the overflow pipe so that the water flows into the tank and not directly into the overflow pipe. It can also cause a leak under the tank lid. This problem is an easy fix that can usually be done without any tools or parts.
Happened to us last month. Never occurred to me to let others know.

Thanks
