Windshield Fluid not working

I have a 2004 BMW 525i E60 with over 108,000 miles and my washer fluid pump for the windshield died. I ordered a new windshield and headlight fluid pump (yes, this was probably overkill),as well as replacement grommets and screens for both. I did not have to remove the wheel and was able to replace both pumps and have it up and running in about 20-minutes.
That was a long explanation just to say I made a YouTube video of my exploits. I guess I am finally trying to contribute back to the community from which I have found and employed incredibly useful information.
Best wishes!

I think my reservoir is cracked... The tank won't hold fluid. The pump works and I get stuff on my windshield, but it always leaks out after filling it up... Is there a R/R for the reservoir? I've searched and been unsuccessful so far... I just ordered a new tank from my dealership. No bad price either $70 for the tank. Thanks!

I had a similar leak. New grommet [on one of the pumps] fixed the issue. New grommet came with new strainer. It cost me couple of bucks.
Pumps are inserted in to the tank via grommets.
