Rear de-mister affecting radio

Here's an interesting one. Has anyone else experienced this or know why it Happens? When the rear de-mist button is pressed to heat up and clear the rear windscreen, the FM signal on the radio is significantly reduced to the point where it sounds as if its no longer tuned correctly / isn't receiving...

Re: Interior fogging up

You might check the pollen filter isn't damp? Can you elaborate? This sounds interesting, wouldn't it create a problem when the aircon is on? https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/askhj/answer/37688/nissan-qashqai---internal-condensation If the pollen filter is sodden with water this would be the reason for...
