I have half the screen not heating in a Torneo 2018 and like to ask if anyone can confirm where the cables are that connect to the screen or show a photo of them.

 

One guy did say that they are in cover of the angled side of the roof support ( A Pilar ) but I cannot see any cable; but I also do not know what i am exactly looking for, older cars had thin ribbon cables coming up from the wiper area which were prone to breaking.

 

What I want to do is check if cables it gets power from the controller ( Body Control Module ).

 

The Glass data:

FUYAO
LAMINATED
DOT459
AS1

M848

    If one side is not heating then the screen is faulty I'm afraid

    The two halves are fused separately, so this may be a cable fault, or even a blown fuse.  

    I can't find a Tourneo glass online quickly but have found this Transit Custom glass of the same era that shows the cable locations clearly below the A pillar trim.
