REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER

GENERAL INFORMATION

M1543000100397

Rear Defogger operation
The defogger relay turns ON if the defogger switch 
built-in the A/C-ECU is turned ON when the ignition 
switch is in the "ON" position. When the defogger 
relay turns ON, power is supplied to the defogger 
and the defogger is activated. The defogger comes 
with a timer function that causes the defogger switch 
to automatically turn OFF in about 11 minutes 
(manual A/C) or about 20 minutes (automatic A/C) 
after the defogger switch is turned ON.

window glass centre A. Condition is good if it 
indicates about six volts.

3. If 12 volts is indicated at A, there is a break in the 

negative terminals from A. Move test bar slowly to 
negative terminal to detect where voltage 
changes suddenly (0volts).

4. If 0 volts is indicated at A, there is a break in the
