Demisting

Postby Simon Devaney » Wed Oct 31, 2018 10:59 pm

Hi Guy's

Got a 2016 crew cab tipper which i'm struggling to demist in a morning, can have the van ticking over for a good 20 mins on the drive first thing trying to clear the windscreen but unless i'm out on the road i can't clear the screen

I have the diverter set on the windscreen and the fan on number 4 but despite a lot of noise hardly anything is coming out the vents, is this normal or am i missing something?

Usual suspects are either you are being in and or with wet boots etc or water getting in somewhere.
Also the fan should be quite strong, I find on my custom if you set the vents to feet they blow stronger, don't bother with recirculation and have the window ajar.

You need to purge the cab of all wetness or you'll just be filling the glass with condensation :(

My custom is dry and I have a heated screen so it is clears quickly.

You may also have a pollen filter fitted and depending on mileage it might be full.

Maybe or maybe not.
