Windows won't un-fog - Toyota Yaris Forums

bnther36 · 11-17-2008, 05:41 PM

Here's some pics of my windows after 45 minutes of driving with the defroster set to recirculate, medium heat, and #4. I tried switching to regular heat, instead of defroster and within 60 seconds the windshield started fogging up. And it's THICK when it does fog up.
I've never had a car do this before.

It's the "recirculate" that is killing you there. Been there, done that, noticed the problem - all fixed!

Well, I tried the 'fresh' air as opposed to recirculate and guess what...NO FOG!

My thanks to all that helped. Ice is bad enough, but icey roads and foggy windows makes for a really nerve wracking ride.
