the other night i took my s14 out and used the defrost to clear up my windsheild. well after about 10 mins of driving and sitting in a parking lot for another 10 at idle, the car started to sputter and click like a fuse was blown out. i traced the problem down to defrost. everytime i turn the fan on (it doesnt matter what setting 1-4) the car acts liek its going to die when the defrost is on. and another weird thing that happened after i got home i checked under the hood and my coolant level was on all the way empty, when i had filled it up the same day. i have no clue what's going on, if it is an electrical problem then maybe its the reason my hazards dont work too (if you checked out my other thread). anybody's input is more then welcome, thanks!
