Rondo Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 My 2011 Fiesta has problems with the heated rear screen elements one at the bottom and two (the most important two!) in the middle do not work. Obviously there is some sort of break but what is the easiest way to test and fix the problem? i have noticed that one of the elements has a section about 2 inches long that feels slightly rough and if you look at it from the outside, that section is a darker colour, so I assume that is the dodgy area. But the other two elements don't have such obvious characteristics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karl46 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 You used to be able to buy conductive paint to repair the elements in rear heated screens. You painted it on to the element with a fine brush to remake the circuit. Don't know if its still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
