Rear Window Defogger - Endeavor
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER GENERAL DESCRIPTION Rear Defogger operation The defogger relay turns ON if the defogger switch built-in the A/C-ECU is turned
ON when the ignition switch is in the "ON" position. When the defogger relay turns
ON, power is supplied to the defogger and the defogger is activated. The defogger
comes with a timer function that causes the defogger switch to automatically turn
OFF in about 17 minutes after the defogger switch is turned ON. EQUIPMENT DIAGNOSIS REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER DIAGNOSIS The rear window defogger is controlled by the A/C-ECU. For troubleshooting, refer
to MANUAL A/C DIAGNOSIS
.
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE PRINTED-HEATER LINES CHECK 1. Run the engine at 2,000 r/min. Check the heater element with the battery at
full.
2. Turn "ON" the rear window defogger switch. Measure the heater element
voltage with an ohmmeter at the rear window glass center A. Condition is good
if it indicates about 6 V.

3. If 12 V is indicated at A, there is a break in the negative terminals from A.
Move the test probe slowly to the negative terminal to detect where voltage
changes suddenly (OV).

3. Replace the radiator cap if the reading does not remain at or above the limit.
ENGINE COOLANT REPLACEMENT 1. Drain the water from the radiator, heater core and engine after unplugging the
radiator drain plug and removing the radiator cap.
2. Drain the water in the water jacket by unplugging the drain plug of the cylinder
block. For the right bank side on AWD vehicles, drain the engine coolant from
the water feed tube assembly of the transfer box.
3. Remove the radiator condenser tank assembly and drain the coolant.
4. Drain the coolant then clean the path of the coolant by injecting water into the
radiator from the radiator cap area.
WARNING:When removing the radiator cap, use care to avoid
contact with hot coolant or steam. Place a shop
towel over the cap and turn the cap
counterclockwise a little to let the pressure escape
through the vinyl tube. After relieving the steam
pressure, remove the cap by slowly turning it
counterclockwise.

11. Immediately after setting the headlights to high beam and turning the heater
blower switch to the highest position, increase the engine speed to 2,500 RPM
and read the maximum current output value displayed on the ammeter. Limit
value: 70 percent of nominal current output.
12. The reading on the ammeter should be above the limit value. If the reading is
below the limit value and the generator output wire is normal, remove the
generator from the engine and check the generator.
13. Run the engine at idle speed after the test.
14. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.
15. Disconnect the engine tachometer or scan tool MB991958.
16. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
17. Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter.
18. Connect the negative battery cable.
19. Run the engine for 10 minutes at an idle. REGULATED VOLTAGE TEST Required special tools:
MB991958: Scan Tool MUT
-III Sub Assembly.
NOTE: The current output value will depend on the electrical
load and the temperature of the generator body.
NOTE: If the electrical load is small while testing, the specified
level of current may not be output even though the
generator is normal. In such cases, increase the
electrical load by leaving the headlights turned on for
some time to discharge the battery or by using the
lighting system in another vehicle, and then test again.
NOTE: The specified level of current also may not be output if
the temperature of the generator body or the ambient
temperature is too high. In such cases, cool the
generator and then test again.
