Defroster relay

[FiReSTaRT]

I could do that if you help me choose the right one. Was it 3-prong or 5-prong? How many Amps? Did you ask for it at the counter or on the shelves? How did you know where to hook it up? Did it have a legend?
Thanks.

You need a 4 or 5 prong - minimum 20A. Just ask at the counter - its the same relay as you would use for driving lights. The terminals will be labelled with numbers as per my previous post. Just hook the wire colours up as mentioned before.

I got a 4-prong 30A, clearly labeled relay with all the wires and plugs for it (a lighting kit). It may be a bit pricey ($20) but it's convenient and still a lot cheaper than a relay @ Mazda and not to mention a harness on top of that. Ofcourse your info from before will be instrumental to wiring this properly, so you have all of my gratitude. Cheers m8!

Good luck with it. $20 is okay, especially for a 30A one - it'll pay for itself every time you use it

Yeah, especially here in Canada, where the climate DEMANDS a working defroster/defogger. I'll even solder the splices to make the connections more reliable. Now the only thing I have to solve is how to mount it. I guess I'll have to take a better look in there

Update. I wired the new relay (just used plastic ties to keep it in place lol), when I turn on the defogger, the relay clicks, there's no smoke or fire, so I'm assuming I did the job right Since I was playing around with the soldering iron, I also re-wired the deck, so I don't expect to be doing any more electrical work this year (other than cleaning the battery terminals lol). You guys (especially Grants) have been very helpful. Thanks!

Well Done!!
