Foggy Windows!!

rayj211 · 11-26-07, 11:06 PM

My windows are always getting foggy every window but the front windshield. Im pretty sure my rear defroster doesnt even work at all. Any one have this problem? I put the fog treatment on the windows but that didnt help at all. It can be kind of scairy driving with all ur windows fogged it makes your vision blurred i really need to get this fixed!

i had the same problem, the rear window defogger relay is located in the fuse box off the radiator, the big relay(gray) closest to the upper radiator hose . i had to check to see which one it is, and make sure your A/C has freon. plus open the vent to accept outside air.

If it's cold out and you first get into the car, always open the window even a half inch or so, so that the air can flow through the car. Otherwise your body heat alone will really fog up the windows quickly. Always keep it on the flow through setting too for heat. If you put it on the recirculate interior air, the windows also seem to steam up quickly.

I've had some times when the weather seemed to get the windows really foggy inside too. It is a Pain in the bass.

If its humid outside put the AC on and put your heat setting in the middle (or with as much cold as you can and still be comfortable) and recirculate the air. Your ac will act as a dehumidifier.

I just buy rain X Anti Defoger for inside the car, it works and only cost three bucks.....

I've found that taking off my pants before I get in the car really helps. I tried doing it after getting in the car, but it just doesn't work as well, telescoping steering wheel or not.

You'll need some more leather cleaner before you'll need window defogger!

Works great on skidmarks!!!

change the relay man, and make sure your A/C compressor clutch is engaging, thats another relay that needs to be working.you shouldn't have to use those products.
