Rear Window Demisters/elements

[ph47mf]

Last few days I have noticed the rear window demisters not being as effective as it used to be. It used to take around 2-3 minutes to demist the whole back window, now takes 25-30 minutes. I opened the boot and had a brief look, I couldn't spot any breaks in the elements and as it still work I don't think it's the fuse. However the bottom 2-3 lines of elements (near the spoiler) did not seem to work. I shall have a proper inspection over the weekend.

If there is a break in the line somewhere, would the following be a good product for a DIY job?

What other things should I do?

Thanks

Yep that should do the trick.

I used something similar years ago on my old Carina and it cured the problem
