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.

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?
