Almera rear window heating issue

Hi, I have a 2006 Nissan Almera with a diesel engine. The rear window heating isn't working. I'm getting an error stored in the memory, and the windshield heating seems weaker than usual. Could a heavily discharged or defective battery be the culprit? Mileage is at 116416 km.

I had a similar problem with my Almera. The error code pointed to the battery, but I wasn't convinced at first. Did you check the battery voltage?

I haven't checked the voltage directly. Just saw the error code suggesting battery issues. What was the behavior of your heating?

Mine was the same. Error code, weak windshield heating, completely dead rear defroster. Ended up being the battery. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop for a proper diagnosis. Will likely save you some time.

Thanks for the advice! I had it checked at a workshop and you were right, it was the battery. Cost me 290€ to replace it, but at least the heating is working perfectly again.
