Peugeot iOn Rear Window Heating Fault

My 2013 Peugeot iOn (electric) is giving me grief. The rear window heating isn't working. I've got 195330 km on the clock, and the error memory is storing a fault. I've noticed the windshield heating isn't as effective either. Could this be a heavily discharged or defective battery?

Rear window heating problems, eh? I had something similar with my iOn. Did you check the heating coil fuse? That was the culprit for me initially. Windshield heating acting up too, though? Hmm, that's interesting. Could be related...

Fuse, you say? Where exactly is that located? Is it a pain to get to? And did replacing the fuse completely solve your problem, or did the windshield heating issue persist after that?

Fuse box under the dashboard, fairly easy to get to. Replacing the fuse fixed the rear window, yes, but like I said, your windshield issue being linked is a different story. Given both are affected and you have a fault code, honestly, I'd get the battery checked out professionally. Might save you a headache in the long run.

I appreciate the advice. Dropped it off at the workshop; you were spot on about the battery! Heavily discharged and causing all sorts of chaos. Repair cost 290€ but at least it will be fixed.
