Heated Screen
Had my windscreen replaced yesterday, due to a large stone cracking the previous one...
New windscreen is now heated, all connected up to the connectors under the inside a pillar trim, i've added 30 amp fuses to positions 15 and 18 - but it's still not working - i'm guessing theres a relay needing adding somewhere
Anybody any idea which position?
TIA

I thought they were all heated, obviously not. was it only on certain models. Even the base model Fiesta has a heated screen Duncan

If I'd known I was going to be so thirsty this morning I'd have drunk more beer last night.

Wex - Added 30 amp fuse to position 15 and 18 which from the owners manual is for the heated front screen.
Can't see anything in the owners manual for the relay position though - hence me asking for help here
