Has anyone had any problems with their rear defroster. Mine works but it takes a very long time.

How long have you had the car, brother? Still breathing heavy every time you get behind the wheel?

Are you talking about melting snow or just fogging up. If it's just fogging up roll your windows down while driving for a sec.

I find it melts snow pretty quick, but oddly enough takes a while to defrost the window when it is fogged up on the inside, and no, not from what you are thinking.

Please give us more information as to why you think it takes a while and the conditions (snow, ice, fogged up, etc.) so we can look into it a bit more for you.

A.O.K.

If it is fogged up abit (inside) on rainy days, try Rain-X anti-fog cleaner...

Mine is slow, sometimes it takes two cycles of the button to clear the window. It does work, albeit slowly. My solution is to keep it in the garage.

I think I would have to know how much current is supposed to go through the circuit and then use a meter to make sure.

Takes 10-15 minutes to clear fog and even then it doesn't clear it up all of the way.

Mine works just fine, clears the outside fog which is all we get here in Florida. To clear the inside, turn the AC on and let the dehumifier do it's job! Even when it's cold outside the AC will work to warm the car - and cut the inside fog too.
