Does the car not get driven regularly?
Posted by: GreenMachine (4929) on 2016-12-02 10:23:38 In Reply to: Since we are on this topic.. my defrost button recently decided to not work. posted by Cash68 on 2016-12-02 09:53:21	Share \| Report

If so, "exercise" the button. It may come back to life.

Otherwise it's the little plastic bracket on the back or bad contacts. If the little tabs are broken on the back the button won't get enough force to activate.

  - Nevermind, works again. lol. - Cash68 2016-12-05 10:34:27 (137 views)
  - If the temp is less than 5 C the defrost snowflake doesn not come on if that is what you mean. - UrS4boy 2016-12-02 13:21:34 (192 views)

    - No, not very often. - Cash68 2016-12-02 17:08:49 (155 views)
- I think that's normal. The defrost switch back light is powered from the light switch. - ThetaTau87 2016-12-01 10:37:34 (202 views)
  - That's just it. Mine is sometimes on when the lights AREN'T on. - running_cold924 2016-12-01 11:37:07 (194 views)
    - Yep, sounds like a lose connection. Check the switch plug and plugs at the ignition and light switch - ThetaTau87 2016-12-01 22:28:21 (166 views)
    - A couple things. - GreenMachine 2016-12-01 12:14:48 (216 views)
      - Sedan. Both I have are LED.   -  running_cold924  2016-12-01 14:02:13 (164 views)
        
        Alright here's my last guess.   -  GreenMachine  2016-12-01 14:34:02 (290 views)
        
        I'll double check but am pretty sure it's fully engaged.  -  running_cold924  2016-12-01 19:45:26 (182 views)
        
        Checked today, definitely plugged in entirely. The search continues...   -  running_cold924  2016-12-02 19:57:21 (156 views)
- Mine does that also, with the difference that it's always on if the car running. - UrSobsessed 2016-12-01 09:31:18 (196 views)
  - It is odd. Old Audis..... - running_cold924 2016-12-01 10:06:39 (210 views)
