L3540 HSDCC Rear Window Defrost

3540 fog relay.pngI would assume the timer is built into the relay not the switch as with most Japanese designed automotive electrical systems from the 80s-90s. The relay part number is 3F740-75030. Chances are if you pull the roof off and trace the wiring from the defogger switch you will find the relay right near the switch itself. I can't find a picture of the relay but there are 4 wires going to it and chances are it can be replaced with a simple relay of the correct amperage that would stay on with the switch operation. If I had a picture of the connector I could recommend one that would work for you.

What about the heated mirrors?:snowflake:

Good luck, Fred

I will have to check again with my service manager. Heated mirrors would be nice, but the defrost is more of a priority to me. I do quite a few driveways, and everyone doesn't have limbs trimmed up the way I would like. My mirrors are often knocked out of position by the low branches, so aren't always properly set.
