WINDSHIELD DEICER SYSTEM > Windshield Deicer does not Operate

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

When the windshield deicer switch*1 or front wiper deicer switch (outer mirror heater switch assembly)*2 is operated, the operation signal is transmitted to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via CAN and AVC-LAN communication lines*1, or directly*2. When the air conditioning amplifier assembly receives the signal, it turns on the No. 1 integration relay to operate the windshield deicer.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
  1. Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
  2. w/ Navigation System
    The windshield deicer system uses the CAN communication and AVC-LAN communication. First, confirm that there is no malfunction in the communication lines. Refer to the How to Proceed with Troubleshooting procedure (Click here).
  3. If the battery voltage becomes low, windshield deicer operation is canceled to prioritize supplying power to the power steering system (Click here).
