Rear screen demister

[catcargin]

Jaguar s type 3 litre 2002

Does anyone else have problems with the rear screen/door mirrors demist-defrost on/off switch? i have to prod mine dozens of times before it will suddenly work,although not always!Also the front screen defrost/demimist on off switch refuses to work most of the time.

Is the answer new switches (are these easy to fit ?) or is it poor connections on the circuits the switches are trying to operate?

Help winters here i need them !!

Any clues would be appreciated

You might be able to get a used switch... never taken one out to be honest.

Should'nt be that expensive new

Thanks Steve that was nearly the solution.

I looked on eBay and found some one breaking an 2002 s type and asked if the CCU was working.They came back with a video showing all singing and dancing so i bought it.

Looked on another Jag forum site and found description on how to remove CCU and Radio unit,split those and replace the faulty CCU with the working one.

Job took half an hour and now all working just as it should,bliss on these frosty mornings.

All thats left to do now is to strip old CCU and try and find the fault and repair,if i can it will then go on eBay tp try and get my money back.
