I have located defogger relay behind driver side crash panel. Need help on how to remove relay. Relay operates when switch is operated but do not get power to rear window, heated mirrors or indicator light. 30 amp fuse as well as 10 amp fuse in circuit are good.

Relay is plugged in and is removed by pulling on it. Could be hard to remove due to it being stuck.

Do you have to drop relay mounting, fuse holder to access it? I can't get hand into it to pull it out!

Space is rather tight and not easy to get a good grip on it. A little prying with the aid of a screwdriver helps.

You might need to drop the fuse panel if you can't get a good grip on it.
