ZJ defogging problem, wifey is unhappy
Ok, here's the problem on these nice rainy days when the windshield fogs up
the defroster has a hell of a time trying to clear it, the wifey is getting a tad upset that she has to drive with the window open to clear the fog (keeps complaining about getting wet... I already handed her a rain coat...didn't go over too good). Any thoughts and ideas would be nice as she stole my XJ today. TIA Snow... oh wifey has a 1993 ZJ, 4.0 :) |
Re: ZJ defogging problem, wifey is unhappy
Rainex - "anti-fog" compound is a solution; but, has to be applied
often and it does promote the inside windows getting dirtier faster. Anti-fog wont totally prevent the windows from fogging up but will be much better than nothing. She can also use it on the bathroom mirrors at home.

Re: ZJ defogging problem, wifey is unhappy
If you are talking about the inside of the windshield, you probably
aren't getting any air conditioning with defrost for some reason. The A/C has to run to dehumidify the moist air. Of course the defroster will eventually do it with just max heat, but it's much faster with both heat and A/C. ---- On Mon, 26 Sep 2005 08:29:03 -0400, "Snow" <snowbal@sympatico.ca> wrote: >Ok, here's the problem on these nice rainy days when the windshield fogs up >the defroster has a hell of a time trying to clear it, the wifey is getting >a tad upset that she has to drive with the window open to clear the fog >(keeps complaining about getting wet...

Re: ZJ defogging problem, wifey is unhappy
Yes ment the inside of the windshield. A/C works on ac settings but I'm not
sure if it is running on the defrost setting, is there a separate relay for the a/c when set to defrost? Snow...
