Everything’s Foggy | Madison Auto Repair

The Madison auto repair technicians at one of Madison Auto Care's seven NAPA service centers will help if your defroster and/or defogger won’t clear your view.

It’s  a cold morning  and all you want to do is sit by the TV while wearing your jammies and sucking on a hot drink. Unfortunately, you have to dress and drive to work. But the trip will be especially unpleasant because your car’s defroster isn’t  working. You can’t keep your windshield clear.

Lifewire.com explains: “Since there are two types of car defrosters, the reason yours stopped working depends on the type you’re dealing with.

“Front car defrosters typically use air from the vehicle’s heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system to melt ice and clear foggy windows. In contrast, rear defrosters typically rely on a grid of hot wires affixed to the window glass. There are exceptions, but you can find these types of defrosters in most cars.”

Lifewire says these are the most likely reasons for a front defroster to stop working:

Broken or stuck controls
Vent and air intake problems
Coolant problems
Blower motor problems

These are the most likely reasons for a rear defogger to cease functioning:

Broken defroster grid
Worn out grid
Broken defroster connections
Bad defroster switch or fuse

The fastest way to find out what’s wrong is to consult the trusted Madison auto repair technicians at one of Madison Auto Care's seven NAPA service centers:  Clausen Auto, Handel Auto, Genin’s Auto, Capitol Tire, Odana Tire, Hansen’s Auto, or Aeschbach Auto.
