There is a switch on the dashboard to turn on the rear window defroster (also called a rear window defogger in areas that don't have frost). If you cannot locate the switch, take the vehicle to a local dealer of that product, and someone will be happy to show you where the switch is located.
If you locate the switch and the defroster will not work, there is likely a blown fuse or faulty wiring, in which case your local dealer will be even happier to repair it for you - for an appropriate fee.
where are the fuses located for the rear window heater on an nissan almera 2001
The rear window de fogger is simply an electric heater. It heats up the glass and water vapor evaporates off.
window heater not working
On my 1994 Corsa you pull the fan control knob to switch on the rear window heater.
as many as you have, as many as you have,
Check to make sure your rear window is not down a little bit. I could not get the rear w/s wiper or the rear window defroster to work until I lowered the rear window and then closed it again. Problem solved. Hope it works for you, too !
IT SOUNDS LIKE ITS THE REAR WINDOW DEMISTER (HEATER) you wont notice it working unless your rear window is fogged up or icy. CMK
Yes a dodge ram van 1500 has two heater cores. The heater core for the rear heat is located on the drivers side between the drivers seat and the first seat in the back. under the window. You will have to remove the side paneling under the window to get to it.
2 different units and different wiring systems.
