rear defroster question
i put in a 1982-1984 interior into my 1986 trans am
so naturally im putting in 82-84 switches.
i never thought about it but i was testing this defroster switch i bought from someone on here and when i push the switch on the light doesnt come on.
i hit the switch off and i hear the relay click
but.....
if my headlights are on the light is on all the time even if i hit it off
this is just by testing it for 2mins with just the key turned engine off
i have no yet driven with it plugged in but i thought if u hit it off the light comes off but its acting like an interior light not a defroster light
this seems very wrong to me all around
any thoughts guys?

Re: rear defroster question
i just tried a second switch i had lying around. from a 1984 trans am
this one i think shows me how its supposed to work.
the defroster symbol comes on with the switch and turns off when u hit the off switch
but the amber light comes on only when the headlights r on i guerss just so you can find the switch at night
sry guys dumb question but i never had to install a defroster switch before haha
does this sound right guys?
