Broken Heated Rear Windscreen

[bassett19]

Hi All,

The heated rear windscreen on my 1999 avensis isnt working. It would be great if anyone has any ideas where to start looking to see if i can fix it myself.

Thanks

Easiest ones would be check the fuse and examine the lines on the screen to make sure none are cut / damaged. Then disconnect the wires by the screen and use a mulitmeter and push the switch to confirm it's getting power.

Hi Bassett19,

I had this problem, the switch illuminated but there was no de-misting taking place. The blade connectors soldered to the screen heater had become detached. I did try some conductive adhesive but this was unsuccessful. I didn't enquire how much a new screen was, I just manage with the air con now.

I hope you can repair yours!
