DESCRIPTION





The rear window defogger (EBL) relay (1) is an International Standards Organization (ISO)-type relay. Relays conforming to the ISO specifications have common physical dimensions, current capacities, terminal functions and patterns (2). The EBL relay is a electromechanical device that switches battery current through a fuse in the power distribution center (PDC) to the rear window defogger grid and when equipped, switches battery current through a fuse in the PDC to the heated outside rear view mirrors. The EBL relay is energized when the relay coil is provided a ground path by the control circuitry within the A/C-heater control.

The EBL relay is located in the PDC at the rear of the vehicle, near the battery.
