Rear Window Heater
The rear window heater is switched on by the rear window heater button. The button is fitted in the heater control panel (centre console). The button is a make switch that connects to earth; the LED lights up when the switch is on.
Relay 1 for the rear window heater picks up, thereby connecting the righthand hardtop locating socket contacts to terminal 30. When the hardtop is fitted, the left hand hardtop locating socket contact is the input (terminal 30) of the rear window heater. The righthand hardtop locating socket contact is connected to earth.

Note (Rear Window Heater Button):
When the button is pressed in, the LED is always on, regardless of whether the rear window heater can actually be operated or not
