Where is my Rear Window Defrost Button at?

Xilan · 02-19-2006, 05:45 PM

I'm setting here thinkin about my mustang... and where is my rear window defrost buttion at? I bought a repair manual for my mustang. "Haynes Repair Manual" Ford Mustang 1994-2003. Well anyway i was reading threw my book and came across the RWD button. *rear window defrost* and i was like "i dont remember having one of them. So i got out to my car and look where the button is suppose to be located at. ITS NOT THERE!!! The only thing there was a cover and when i took it off it revealed a plug lookin thing. Its a 2000 Ford Mustang V6. I was wondering if anyone else is missing this button.

P.S. I'll post some pics of it in a few minutes i gotta run my fat butt out there. ITS COLD!!!

Thanks,
Xilan

Mine is there. Do you have small orange lines across the back of your window on the inside?

Xilan · 02-19-2006, 05:55 PM

Yess i do.. lol Its weird..i would have pics up right now but its too dark to get a good picture... they all turned out black.

They're there but no button.

MattJ · 02-19-2006, 06:04 PM

Go buy the button from ford and youll have defrost.

Xilan · 02-19-2006, 06:08 PM

I no thats prolly what i'll have to do but i was wondering why it wasnt there in the first place. Like if the factory had made it without the button or what... and why it had a cover over it... its weird... I'll figure something out.

DarkSith · 02-19-2006, 06:37 PM

I bet someone changed you gauge cluster cover with one from a 2001+.

*4.6 Love* · 02-19-2006, 06:43 PM

Defrost buttons are overrated...

mustangvsix · 02-19-2006, 06:58 PM

yeah i think darksith is right, because i have an auto 2000 v6 and mine is right where it is supposed to be...

Xilan · 02-19-2006, 07:03 PM

if your windows are tinted, don't waste your money on using it. All it will do is bubble up your tint!!!

Xilan · 02-20-2006, 09:23 AM

Nahh there not tinted... i got some pics now that its daylight.

Heres the proof that i have the lines on window...

Xilan · 02-20-2006, 10:32 AM

Nope....i looked there too... only for windshield defroster. I was planing on tinting my windows too.

floppy · 02-20-2006, 10:40 AM

that pic is not where your rear window defrost button is. it should be under your radio.
