Nah, they're too focused on Kelly's car right now.

Seriously though, just check the contacts on the end of the hatch. On 3rd gens those things can get loose so check there first.

:stupid:
I'm leaning towards that too since its on the top of the hatch, maybe a wires loose on it and when the light comes on its sending power onto your defroster grid. I dunno, just guessin.

It's very likely it's the clip at the top of the hatch.
