2003 Nissan Moco's Heated Windows Not Working: Seeking Advice on Fault Light and Windscreen Heating System

Hey folks! I've got a bit of a situation with my 2003 Nissan Moco, Gasoline with around 158k kms on the clock. My heated windows ain't playing ball and have stopped working. My car's fault light has come on and I'm suspecting it might be a glitch in the windscreen heating system. Last time I took my car to a mechanic, let's just say, it wasn't the best experience. Anyone here experienced something similar? Would love to hear how you guys dealt with it and if your mechanic was able to solve the issue. Thanks a bunch!

Summary of the thread

A 2003 Nissan Moco owner is experiencing issues with the heated windows not functioning and a fault light appearing, suspecting a glitch in the windscreen heating system. A similar case with a 2000 Nissan Cube involved a defective heated windscreen element, requiring a full windscreen replacement to resolve the issue. The suggested solution is to have the system checked and potentially replace the windscreen to ensure safety and proper function.

Hey there! I had a similar issue with my 2000 Nissan Cube not too long ago. My windscreen heater stopped heating and the fault light was on. Took it to the garage and found out the heated windscreen element was defective, just as you suspected might be the case with your Moco. It wasn't a minor issue, but neither was it something overly serious. The mechanic had to replace the entire windscreen which wasn't pleasant but would rather have clear verses and a warm car, right? Remember, safety first! The fix did just the trick and haven't had any issues since then. I'd say get it checked out pronto to avoid it being a potential danger in the long run.

Hey! Thanks a ton for the info. That sounds pretty much like what's going on with my Moco. I'm not thrilled about possibly having to replace the entire windscreen, but, as you said, safety first! Just out of curiosity, you got any idea around what you ended up forking out for that? And has anything else popped up with your Cube since you got it fixed? Cheers!

Hey! No worries at all, glad I could provide some insight. So the final bill that I had to cough up for getting that pesky windshield heating element replaced was 585€. Yeah, I know, not exactly pocket change, but, hey, it did the job. And you know what, ever since the mechanic patched up my Cube, it's been smooth sailing - not a single problem with the windscreen heating system again. Nothing beats having a toasty car with a see-through windscreen on those chilly mornings, am I right? Totally worth every penny spent. Stay safe on the road!

Hey, could not agree more! Chilly mornings are the worst! Okay, so it's definitely not peanuts, but at least it's a sure-shot solution. Knowing my luck, I'm probably due for that kind of expense, but, as you said, gotta think about safety first! Thanks again for your advice and sharing your experience. Definitely got a clearer picture of what I'll be dealing with. Drive safe! Cheers!
