Default Horrid rear defrost?

Am I the only one with a crappy rear defrost? None of the lines are broken, just doesn't melt anything.

We're getting a ton of snow right now and I couldn't see a damn thing when I was out, sucks not knowing what's gonna rear end you

Any fixes for this or is it just a "Honda thing"?

Did you check the fuse?

Worse yet, the 99-00 Si only has rear defrost on half the window. The top half stays iced.

It shouldn't be the fuse unless it's half blown and letting some current through.... it still defrosts fog and *light* snow. But it's not as effective as any other car I've driven.

And my 92 4 door doesn't have lines on the top 6-8 inches either, wich sucks because I need that to see over the damn spoiler (factory).

Sucks knowing that there are people out there who are so ******* lazy that they don't scrape/brush their rear window if their defroster doesn't work. That's pretty gay, son.

Makes me wish an IQ test was issued at every drivers' test.

*sigh* Ask questions before flaming......

It *does* work, just not like a defrost should. (You'd know that it works if you read the whole post)

I stopped several times to clean my windows.... little good it does when they're covered before you get back in the car.

If ya did a little research (like looking at my location, on the left hand side of your screen), you would have noticed I'm from Canada, a part of Canada in the snow belt. That means when I get snow, i don't get a little flurry and it's gone the next day. I have a good 6 inches in my driveway, and it's supposed to snow until mid day tommorow.

Being from Ohio, you should know what i'm talking about...

Thanks, have a nice day.
