radio and antenna interference

As far as I know this just started this week. Was driving and the windows started to fog a little so I turned on my rear window defroster and bam all my radio stations turned to super static. Tested several times since then. It starts soon as defroster is turned on and soon as I turn it off it instantly clears. Could it possibly battery?

Check for a grounding issues, loose grounds. Check battery terminals for tightness, cleanliness. Your battery state is not the cause of this radio interference.

Good luck

I had this issue on my car. You will need to replace the back window. Mines was replace under warranty. The defrost lines become exposed and allow the electricity to escape which affects the radios antenna.

Is there a TSB on this?
