actually, check this....
Look at your defroster lines. Look REAL close. Check to see if something went across them breaking the line. Like you were loading/unloading something and scraped the glass. If these lines have even the smallest break in them, they wont work. If you find a break, go get a fix (like liquid copper or something) and patch'r up. Good luck. If not that, check this... Fog up dem mirrors! Hit your defroster button. If your mirrors dont defrost then you have a problem with the defroster itself, if they do, well at least you know its not the defroster and head towards the back to find the problem. |

I'm not sure, is this the defogger relay problem or not? cos i pull it out and check it with the fuse tester, seems one set of the teminals not continuity...so i'll try to replace a new defogger relay and see how......

do you have it on recirc air or outside air? defog/defrost doesnt work when its on recirc
 , if that aint it its probably something scratched the lines in the glass or a short in a wire.BTW nice to see another guy from MI in here!! if you ever wanna chat about stuff going on locally my AIM is k2mr2t91. later! --------------------  Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm...

Defog will defintely work if its on recirc, and works incredibly fast if you turn the A/C on... it will clear up in a few seconds.

Are you talking about rear defogger (with lines) or the front which is just redirected air.

do you guys have a problem when its raining and the windows fogging up, but when I turn up the heat to defog them... it makes the car extremely warm.... its like a compromise between comfort and seeing... My friend and i couldn't see a thing and were cooking!

crack your windows to let hot air out (sunroof if you have it() and turn the A/C on to cycle cold air in. That'll fix the rain problem.

So what did you end up doing? Did you replace the relay? |
