Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely check those connections. No visible leaks that I can see. Did you have to replace any parts when you had the issue?

No worries. I didn't replace anything initially, but the problems became bigger. The connections were corroded and it eventually gave out, the lights even started to flicker. It is just a suggestion and might not be exactly what you are experiencing, but might be worth a look. Anyway, a garage should be able to sort you out quickly.

Took your advice and checked the connections. They looked fine, but the garage confirmed a defective relay and a clogged pump. Cost me 165€, but all sorted now. Thanks for the help!

I had a similar problem with my 124's headlight cleaning system. Check the cable connections to the pump and the relay. A faulty connection there can cause both the headlight and windshield washer systems to fail. Is there any sign of a leak by any chance?
