Rear window demister relay

Can anyone tell me where this is if it is not near the battery/aerial
please. My auto electrician spent 45 minutes trying to find it!

The relay is behind the rear panel in the boot next to the tail light cluster.
The fuse block goes next to the aerial.

Thanks Mike but mine isn't there. That is unless it's in the white box
attached to the aerial? I have the fuse box for the aerial and rear
screen but nothing else that looks like what is in the book.Help!...or I
will have to get it wired in from scratch.

Do you have the connector on the parcel shelf for the heated screen to plug
into? If you haven't got that then maybe the relay wiring won't be there
either.

My import 90 doesn't have the connector but my UK 96 does.

Good luck
Mike.

I believe the demister connectors were fitted late 91. The heated rear window
hard tops were introduced at the same time.
