WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM Rear Window Defogger System does not Operate

DESCRIPTION

When the rear window defogger switch on the multi-media module 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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note


  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

  • If the battery voltage becomes low, rear window defogger operation is canceled to prioritize supplying power to the power steering system Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM


    1. Use the GTS to check if the CAN communication system is functioning normally.
