WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM Rear Window Defogger System does not Operate

DESCRIPTION

When the rear window defogger switch on the radio receiver assembly is pressed, the operation signal is transmitted to the air conditioning amplifier assembly through a CAN communication line. When the air conditioning amplifier assembly receives the signal, it turns on the No. 2 integration relay to operate the rear window defogger.
