Posted by: detoxcowboy Dec 3 2009, 09:53 AM

Does anyone know of or have a picture of the Original Harness or Harnesses for the rear defrost windows? Did the 914 use 1 or all three? In the parts diagram is appears there is one harness from the switch and another from the relay board..

Different number for different years. 914-6 had the rear window harness built in, the stock 914 did not on early cars. PET will tell you what harness go with what years.

Not sure about the /6 but there are two that I have encountered.
73-74 & 75-76. The Early runs from switch under dash thru the tunnel & firewall sleeve to connect with the relay board in the Eng. compartment.
The late is is a shorter version that connects to the relay junction under the Pass seat.

So does that mean all 914-6's came with the rear defrost harness built in despite not coming with a rear defrost window? Thanks.

All the 70-71 harness I have seen have them built in. I can not say about the 72 model. As I understand it the 72 was mostly 914-4 with -6 adapter harnesses BUT I have never seen one in person.

OK, thanks. I appreciate your response.

Can you recall where the lead comes out of the harness at the dash end?

Harness comes out by the lighter.

right between the lighter and the defroster/ventilation/heater controls. On my car I can feel the hole behind the basket weave material for the switch.
