Windshield washer not working

I own a 2005 E90 320i. A few days ago, a yellow warning light appeared on my dashboard. Initially, I suspected it was indicating low washer fluid. after few days washer stop working ,When I pulled the lever, there was no response – no fluid discharged, and even the wipers remained inactive ( NB: wipers working when i up or down the lever) At first, I speculated that a safety feature might have deactivated the system due to the fluid being empty. However, after refilling the fluid, the warning light disappeared, but the problem persisted."
i check the fuses and relay everythings looks good

Considering the model year of your BMW E90 320i (2005), it's possible that the washer pump itself might need replacing due to wear and tear over time. Additionally, it's worth inspecting the wiring harness and connectors associated with the washer pump to ensure there are no loose connections or damage.

Yeah most likely a bad washer pump. Ireplaced mine as these pumps leak from the bottom nipple. I replaced mine and still have a leak somewhere. Too lazy to gey down there again. 😝

Check for leaks while you there too. The washer fluid tank as it tends to crack and leak fluid.

There is a filter on the pump that can get clogged, it’s a pain to pull the fender liner so I’d just replace the pump and be done with it.
