Heated Front Windscreen

[oceantools]

Hi there

Has anybody suffered a failure of the heated front windscreen? Mine clears on the driver side but not the passenger side. Spoke to the dealer and they're going to sort it out.....

Nope. Mine worked perfectly the other day, and very quickly too!

Mine too - but now my reversing alarm sounds permanently (in reverse obviously!) instead !

No problems with either of mine (I had a replacement screen, not two at the same time! )

Does the red R indicator come on too?

If so I suspect a loose switch in the centre console (happened to me temporarily). Careful on the road as your reverse lights may also be coming on.

Not uncommon with heated screens in general. Could be corrosion in terminal connector or a break in the primary element(s).

I've not seen any secondary effects other than it only clears one side of the screen. Fingers crossed that they'll sort it next week.
