A heated tailgate window defogger system is available on Cherokee and Wagoneer models. The system consists of 2 vertical bus bars and horizontal rows of heating elements fused to inside of glass, a control switch, pilot light, and timer relay. Braided wire serves as the electrical feed and ground for the grid. The grid feed wire is attached to the timer relay located inside tailgate. The timer relay receives its power from the fuse panel power tailgate terminal. A 30-ampere circuit breaker protects the circuit.
