    Trying to install viper 5701.. found all wires but rear defogger and trunk relay wire.

    the12volt.com's diagram says to get it from the switch, but I hear a relay clicking when I push trunk release button on my factory fob. (not when I push button)

    and a wire from HVAC control controls rear defog? relay?
    I want relay wires........



    anyone?

    Thanks,

    Isn't that clipped right into the rear window? LH & RH sides?

    You don't know what you're looking for at ALL do you...

    Relay = switch so what wire of the relay are you looking for?

    Hmm. If your not sure what your looking for get a Chilton manual. See if the wiring diagrams etc. help.

    Relay != switch.

    I look for the wire that triggers the relay that clicks when I push defog button on hvac.
    (and yes, the trunk release button on my factory fob too.)

    If you remove the plastic panels and the metal panel below the steering wheel(knee bolster) you will see 3 relays to the left of the steering column, I know the trunk release relay is the one that has a small brown wire going to it and that wire is a negative trigger to pop the trunk, I also believe that the defogger relay is there but not sure which one it is...

    Hope this helps
