Skoda Octavia Windshield Heater Problem

I have a 2023 Skoda Octavia, hybrid engine, with 210448 km. Recently, the windshield heater stopped working. I get an error in the error memory, and the spray nozzles freeze in cold temperatures, making winter driving difficult. I suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Any suggestions before I take it to the workshop?

I have a similar Octavia. A comparable problem occurred for me last winter. Did you check the fuse box? Sometimes a blown fuse can cause this. It's like a tripped breaker in your house.

Thank you for your response. Where is the fuse box located, and which fuse should I check?

The fuse box is usually near the steering wheel or in the engine compartment. The manual should specify the exact location and which fuse controls the windshield wipers and washer motor. However, if there is an error stored, it is likely more than just a fuse. I advise you to visit the workshop.

I appreciate your input. I took the car to a workshop, and as you suspected, it was a faulty connection. Repair cost was 95€. Everything is working as expected now.
