System Description
The rear window defogger system is controlled by the smart entrance control unit. The rear window defogger
operates only for approximately 15 minutes.
Power is supplied at all times
+to rear window defogger relay terminalj
3
+through 15A fuse (No.43, located in the fuse and fusible link box) and
+to rear window defogger relay terminalj
6
+through 20A fuse (No.44, located in the fuse and fusible link box).
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
+to the rear window defogger relay terminalj
1and
+to smart entrance control unit terminalj
12
+through 7.5A fuse [No.8, located in the fuse block (J/B)].
Ground is supplied to terminalj
2of the rear window defogger switch through body grounds.
When the rear window defogger switch is turned ON, ground is supplied
+through terminalj
1of the rear window defogger switch
+to smart entrance control unit terminalj
8.
Terminalj
9of the smart entrance control unit then supplies ground to the rear window defogger relay termi-
nalj
2.
With power and ground supplied, the rear window defogger relay is energized.
Power is supplied
+through terminalsj
5andj7of the rear window defogger relay
+to the rear window defogger.
The rear window defogger has an independent ground.
With power and ground supplied, the rear window defogger ®laments heat and defog the rear window.
When the system is activated, the rear window defogger indicator illuminates in the rear window defogger
switch.
Power is supplied
+to terminalj
3of the rear window defogger switch
+from terminalj
5of the rear window defogger relay.
Terminalj
4of the rear window defogger switch is grounded through body grounds.

Filament Check
1. Attach probe circuit tester (in volt range) to middle portion of
each ®lament.
+When measuring voltage, wrap tin foil around the top of
the negative probe. Then press the foil against the wire
with your ®nger.
2. To locate burned out point, move probe to left and right along
®lament. Test needle will swing abruptly when probe passes the
point.
+If a ®lament is burned out, circuit tester registers 0 or 12
volts.

Filament Repair
REPAIR EQUIPMENT
1. Conductive silver composition (Dupont No. 4817 or equivalent)
2. Ruler 30 cm (11.8 in) long
3. Drawing pen
4. Heat gun
5. Alcohol
6. Cloth
REPAIRING PROCEDURE
1. Wipe broken heat wire and its surrounding area clean with a
cloth dampened in alcohol.
2. Apply a small amount of conductive silver composition to tip of
drawing pen.
Shake silver composition container before use.
3. Place ruler on glass along broken line. Deposit conductive sil-
ver composition on break with drawing pen. Slightly overlap
existing heat wire on both sides [preferably 5 mm (0.20 in)] of
the break.
4. After repair has been completed, check repaired wire for con-
tinuity. This check should be conducted 10 minutes after silver
composition is deposited.
Do not touch repaired area while test is being conducted.
5. Apply a constant stream of hot air directly to the repaired area
for approximately 20 minutes with a heat gun. A minimum dis-
tance of 3 cm (1.2 in) should be kept between repaired area
and hot air outlet. If a heat gun is not available, let the repaired
area dry for 24 hours.

System Description
+A heat line has been added to the lower portion of the wind-
shield.
+During cold weather, water can freeze between the wiper
blades and windshield. Turning the wiper deicer switch ON
melts the ice between the blades and windshield.
+During snowfall, packed snow can accumulate around the
windshield lower surface and surrounding areas. Turning the
wiper deicer switch ON melts the snow to allow the wiper
blades to more easily remove it.
+The wiper deicer operates only for approximately 15 minutes
while ignition switch is in ON position. The timer is combined
with wiper deicer switch.
