Kuga rear window heating failure

Rear window heating malfunction on my 2010 Ford Kuga diesel with 51655 km. Windshield defroster is inoperative, error stored. Windshield heating also doesn't function. Could it be a discharged battery? Anyone else had this?

Hey! I've got a Kuga too, and that sounds familiar. Not sure about the error code, but my rear defroster acted up exactly like that. It was like trying to dry clothes in a hurricane – pointless! Did you check the simple stuff first, like the fuses?

Thanks! Could you elaborate on the similarities and what you checked before fixing it?

Symptoms were spot on – rear window wouldn't clear. I fiddled with the fuses, checked the connections, but nothing seemed obviously wrong. Honestly, I gave up and took it to a workshop. Sometimes it's like trying to understand quantum physics – beyond my brainpower!

Thanks for confirming. I'll get a professional diagnostic. Repair cost is about 290€.
