Rear Defroster

Stouts 'n' Scotch
Re: Rear Defroster (Hondatypr636)
Check the wiring connector at the back to see if you get power, other wise sometimes the metallic strips will actually wear out over time. There is some conducting fluid you can use to repair them if this is the case.

Re: (Hondatypr636)
when I bought my crx the def did not work either.
I followed the test procedure for the circuit and it turned out to be a bad controller (the button on the dash).
10bucks and I had a new one off ebay.

Mabe it was unpluged by the prev owner.
I unpluged the two connectors at the glass on mine due to not wanting to chance ruining my tint. Just a thought .

I cant remember for sure
sorry
I cant find a troubleshooting procedure on line.
so here are the steps from my manual
1.
check for voltage between drvr side window terminal(should be the pos term) and gnd(body)
if no voltage - faulty relay(in dash fusebox)
-open wire
2.
If there is voltage check for continuity from neg term(pass side) to body
If no continuity bad gnd wire
3.
If there is voltage at the pos term then you should read 6v from middle of each defgr window trace to neg term
To eliminate switch as issue.
open instrmt panel and unplug defog switch
turn ignt ON
check for voltage between blak/yellow and blak wire
-if no voltage , broken blak/yellow wire
If there is voltage
connect a jumper from blak/yellow to blak/green terminals and turn on ignt
deffoger should work with jumper
If it does the you have a bad switch
relay test:
Bottom of relay.

|...A.............C......|

a-b should have continuity when bat is connected to c-d
a-b should be open when no bat
Hope this helps

why would it ruin your tint? iv tinted my own back window on a cougar and it didnt ruin it. everyone thinks its bad for tint when its not.. tint is made to withstand the heat from the sun and that gets alot hotter then a rear defroster.
