Guest dangerousdave28 Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 My heated from screen only works on the drivers side as does the wing mirror. The passengers heated wing does not work. I was wondering if the heated screen has an earth for each half and whether this could be why it doesn't work. Any thoughts? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincygav Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Yes it has a earth for each side. The n/s one is in the scuttle panel are of the engine bay near the battey on the left inner wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dangerousdave28 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Anyone know where the all the wires connect to the screen? Could it be the relay that's causing only one side to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincygav Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 MOst likely the elements in the screen is stopping it. New windscreen Im afraid if you want it to work. Bits of my screen on one side, the drivers side doesnt work, most likley caused by the stone chips in my windscreen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is strange, cause the stone chip is one the drivers side, but it's the passenger side that doesn't work. I have now checked all the wiring and have power and earth both sides, so looks like it'll be a new screen before the winter arrives. Sorted the mirrors, no earth when I checked. unplugged the connecter between door and A pillar and reconnected and now have earth are mirror, so hopefully will be ok when the ice arrives, if not, new glass will be needed.
