What components are found in a laminated integral electrically heated windshield system?

  1. Heat control relay and indicating light.

  2. Autotransformer and suction relief valve.

  3. Autotransformer, Heat control relay, Heat control toggle switch, Indicating light.

  4. Distributor valve and vane type pump.

The correct answer is: Autotransformer, Heat control relay, Heat control toggle switch, Indicating light.

A laminated integral electrically heated windshield system consists of three main components an autotransformer, a heat control relay, and a heat control toggle switch. The autotransformer is responsible for stepping up the voltage to the desired level for efficient heating, while the heat control relay is used to turn the system on and off and regulate the heat output. The heat control toggle switch allows the driver to adjust the level of heat being emitted from the windshield. The other options listed, such as a distributor valve and suction relief valve, do not play a role in heating the windshield and are therefore incorrect choices.
