Wink Xj8 air pressure line-resolved

SO THE OTHER DAY I WAS DRIVING DOWN MY BLOCK AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEAR AIR ESCAPING WHAT SOUNDED LIKE MY REAR TIRE. THEN I GET A WARNING ON MY SCREEN SAYING VEHICLE TOO LOW AND THEN AIR SUSPENSION FAULT. THE WHOLE REAR OF THE CAR WAS NOW SITTING AS LOW AS IT CAN GO. THANKFULLY I WASNT TOO FAR FROM MY HOUSE. I PARKED IT UP AND THE NEXT DAY I GOT TO WORK AND DISCOVERED THAT ONE OF THE AIR LINES HAD COME OUT OF ITS FITTING. I CLEANED IT, CHECKED FOR OTHER LEAKS OR LOOSE HOSES AND PUT IT RIGHT BACK IN THE SAME SLOT. I PUT A LITTLE BIT OF DUCT TAPE TO SECURE IT SINCE IT WAS WORKING AGAIN WITHOUT ANY GLUE OR TAPE. JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE THIS SINCE I THOUGHT MY AIR SHOCK WENT!!!
