    The owners' manual states that when the Defogger is turned on for the first time it will operate for about 10 min.. If you turn it on again it will only operate for about 5 minutes.

    The same goes for my 96 Z28. However I've found that if I turn it on right after running the full cycle it will only stay on for a few seconds. If I wait a longer interval of time before turning it back on again then it will stay on longer. If this sounds like what your experiencing, than it may be normal.

      Most times, swapping the 30 amp breaker for a 30 amp fuse will do the trick.
