Hyundai Palisade: Heater / Auto Defogging Actuator
Description and operation
The auto defogging sensor is installed on the front window glass. The sensor
judges and sends signal if moisture occurs to blow out wind for defogging. The
air conditioner control module receives a signal from the sensor and restrains
moisture and eliminates defog by the intake actuator, A/C, auto defogging actuator,
blower motor rpm and mode actuator.
