heated front screen
Discussion
Check for voltage at the connector at the bottom of the screen under the bonnet. If its got volts then you need a screen. If its no, the relay if your sure its not the fuse. The early ones did get water from the screen run down the wiring a fill the relay, shorted the relay and flattened customer battery. haven't seen that since 1998ish, though.
Even a small stone chip can break the little heater element between the glass layers.

Just looking at the wiring diagram, the only way you wouldn't have power at one fuse and do at the other is if the fuse box is faulty. Unlikely, don't test going across the fuse, put one probe on good earth and test with other.
If there is definatly no power, try jumping power from one use to the other with a piece of wire, see if it starts working, then you need a fuse box.
I still think it will be screen or relay those relays were rubbish, try swapping the relays round see it the fault changes side too.
They are under the black plastic cover by the brake fluid reservoir. Looking for Three in a group nearest the wing. Rear one is RH heated screen, middle is LH heated screen, front one is starter relay.
see how you go.
