When you press the switch, does it latch in? Does your remote start unit have provisions for a latched output? Do you have access to a volt meter?

Most of the Chryslers where I've attempted rear defogger connection have had a multiplexed defogger control done via the control panel and the BCM - the easiest way to control it via remote start is by tapping the control terminal of the relay.

My remote start ia an audiovox aps687a with a channel 4 latched output. I do have a volt meter.
