Rear defroster blowing 30A fuse.

Look on the sides of the element, there is usually a black connector plugged onto the prongs.

I flipped open the hatch and popped off the black plastic cover that was right at eye level - seemed like the one to do as I could clearly see the elements do a 90 degree bend and appear to go into it. Nope. False alarm. While it looks to be the one, that is solely the brake light housing - verified that by unplugging it. It must be the plastic cover that is directly over my head and the one that also houses the rear wiper motor. Tried to pop it off but I was marking it up pretty good and it's after 5pm here with light failing fast - no time to continue on. Hopefully will resume tomorrow.

Sounds good

I managed to download factory Hyundai manuals, so now I am armed and dangerous - great info. I only had 1/2 hour today in which I managed to pop off the cover over the grid terminals/rear wiper motor. I disconnected the + and - leads to the defroster grid, closed the hatch window and tried it - it blew the fuse straight away. So the process of elimination has begun. Looks like cold and snow starting on Wednesday, so I don't know when I will get back at this again. I'll check into how to pop off the panel around the defroster switch without damaging it and then continue on when weather/time permits.

Alright sounds good. If you need colors of wires let me know. I have diagrams.
