I'm not quite sure why, but my defroster takes for f****n ever to defrost just my front windshield.
Is there any way to fix or "upgrade" the front defrosters. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

It automatically comes on when you set the blower to the window. So maybe your ac is not working? -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

The AC button needs to be depressed manually for the AC to kick in while the front defogger is on. That said, I almost never use it with the AC, at least in the winter. I just leave the temp to max-heat and set it to high. Defogs my windshield well. As for the summer, if it's fogging up, then you probably will want to set it to vent, cool and A/C to get rid of moisture.
