Back Window Defroster
Yep!
there is a brake in the contacts on the back window
electric back light. a fancy name for rear window defroster
There can be several reasons a rear defroster fails even when the light on the defroster switch indicates it is on. The most likely reason is that one of the metal defroster tabs along the side of the back window has separated from the defroster. If the defroster tabs check out as still attached to the defroster then you need to do a little checking with a volt meter. The first thing to check is the voltage directly on the tabs themselves. This should be around 12-14 volts. If the voltage is zero then there is very likely a broken wire someplace between the defroster relay and the defroster. If you have 12-14 volts a the defroster tabs then there is something going on with the grid which is normally broken defroster elements, those long thin horizontal lines on the back window.
EBL is an abbreviation for electronic back light That is what Dodge calls the rear window defroster.
The defroster is a thin filament that is run across the rear window sometimes inside that heats up to remove frost. first off does the switch light up when pressed? is there power to the connector at the back window? if so then check the filament itself for breaks this may be the problem, if not then it may be a blown fuse, or bad connection.
On my 2005 Pacifica, the antenna is located in the passenger side trunk window. Looks similar to the defroster wires that are on the back window
It is on above of right vent the button is there on the top of middle vent console
Chrysler uses that abbreviation for "electric back light" which is what they call a heated rear window defroster.
It is attached to the back window, it looks like one of the wires from the defroster. If you look close you can see it.
