'03 Camry Rear Defroster Question

Oct 20, 2004 3 Replies

Is the rear defroster supposed to heat the window using all the lines that are visible? I took my car in for service because the top and bottom of the window does not defrost(about 3-4 lines). The dealer told me that was considered normal operation, those other lines are for use as an antenna. Am I getting the run-around or the correct info concerning the rear defroster/antenna. Thanks for your replies!


Yes, the new camry has replaced the retractable antenna with the window antenna. the old retractable antenna gets jammed during winter when it's frozen inside.
