I suppose there could be a single pump, with a diverter and check valve but could also have 2 pumps, sharing the same reservoir.

A call to the parts counter, would answer the question.

FORD BRONCO SPORT: is there a separate pump for rear window washer - front ok BUT nothing spraying on rear window ?

ChatGPT said:
The Ford Bronco Sport (like most modern vehicles) typically uses a single washer pump that supplies fluid to both the front and rear washer nozzles. The pump changes direction or uses a valve to direct the fluid to either the front or rear when you activate the respective switch.
Possible Reasons Your Rear Washer Isn’t Working:

1. Clogged Nozzle – The rear washer nozzle may be blocked with dirt or debris.
2. Frozen or Clogged Hose – If it's cold, the fluid line may be frozen. Otherwise, the hose could be pinched or clogged.
3. Disconnected or Damaged Hose – The hose running to the rear may have come loose or developed a leak.
4. Malfunctioning Pump Valve – If the pump isn’t switching correctly, it may not be sending fluid to the rear.
5. Low Fluid Level – If the fluid is too low, the pump may only be supplying the front.

How to Fix It:
Check the rear nozzle – Use a pin or needle to clear any blockages.
Listen for the pump – When you activate the rear washer, can you hear the pump running? If not, the pump may not be switching properly.
Inspect the hose – Look for any leaks or disconnections near the rear hatch.
Try a different washer fluid – If it’s cold, try a winter formula to prevent freezing.
If the front washers work but not the rear, it’s likely a clogged or disconnected line rather than a pump failure. If you need help locating the hose or nozzle, I can guide you!

I like where your head is at! Don’t even need to think or ask questions to get flamed in the comments anymore. Just ask AI bot and you get your answer. I use it for work every day and we are training our own AI for mundane work tasks at work and home.

Yes, if everyone used AI first there would probably be a lot less chatter/clutter in these Threads, on Reddit, Facebook, etc. However, in this case it looks like the OPs problem might be a fuse and the ChatGPT missed it. If the fuse is the problem I can tell ChatGPT that the OP is smarter than it is! Of course, then ChatGPT would remember that, thank us profusely, and add the fuse to it's list of answers so the next person with the same question would get better results. Hope to hear back from the OP.

Where do you think AI gets its data?

Where do you think AI gets its data?

Right here, of course, PLUS ALL THE REST OF THE WEB. Then it's organized into a succinct, quick answer. You sort of got me!

I assume the “Holy Trinity of Knowledge”… Carol Shelby, Dean Moon and Dale Freakin Earnhardt. ????‍??

 

[NMhunter]

Maybe you haven't noticed, but AI isn't any smarter than the average fools on the internet. My rear "sprayer" just dribbles water.

Time to start staying in bed and let AI take over.

Maybe that's why I'm still tired in the morning.
