Rep Power: 0

1999 Civic EX Sedan

No rear defroster when the control button is pushed. Button lights up and I can hear what sounds to be the relay kick in. I've tested the grid for continuity with a multimeter and the grid is fine. However, there's no power coming back to the post on the sides of the grid. What am I missing?

Thanks,

Jay

P.S. It's starting to get cold here in WI and I will need the rear defroster soon.

To be clear- the grid is fine but, your not getting power to it?

I had this happen and just ended up running a new wire from the switch in the dash to the post on the window as I didn't want to find the short.

Check fuses or the connection on it.

Yes. The grid shows good continuity. I tested each wire with a multi-tester. Thanks. I'll give that a try. Does the wire go along the driver's side door moulding?

I think the wire harness is on the passenger's side, I think.

OK. I'll be able to look this weekend.

Thanks,
