Hi All,
First post, intro on the 'intros thread'. Nice to be here after reading through for so long.
During the last cold 'snap', the rear windows became misted. As you do, I put on the rear demist and as expected the tail gate window began to demist. However, the 2 rear windows, with heating elements, failed to demist as expected.
On investigation as to whether a possible fuse failure was the problem, things became awkward. The fuses for the rear demist are located at the rear left of the cargo bay. Fuses 37 & 38 are on the bottom right of the board, totally inaccesible without removing the board from its holder and moving it into the access panel area. It is possible to remove the board from its holder, but being able to move it rearward and therefore able to get at the fuses, becomes a test of faith as to whether or nor something will break if you try to force it past the trim.
Is there a 'method' that those here with a bit of experience could help me with or as the dealer says, "it should just be a case of pulling it rearward".
Don't you love the word 'SHOULD'? Must be worth quite a bit for the spares department!
Thanks in anticipation,
P4
