hi there can this be fixed only by replacing the windscreen. £70 (or less) if you have fully comp insurance. hth

thanx for your advice on this,as to the thought of dismantling the windscreen to attempt to try and fix the element would've given me nightmares

<<< only by replacing the windscreen. £70 (or less) if you have fully comp insurance.>>>> Are you certain that an Insurance Co. will replace the screen just because the heater element is shot ? I shall investigate the small print in my policy

Surely if the windscreen is cracked then the heater won't work anyway

I'd feel bad about defrauding the Insurance company by making a false windscreen claim .............hold on a minute, ..........they diddle millions of pounds out of millions of policy holders every day. Where's that hammer ?

I was shocked when I bought my scorp - it was the ONLY ford i've ever owned with a heated screen that WORKED on the drivers side Nothing worse than pressing the button and giving the passenger perfect vision in seconds

lol i had this on previous fords i since found that it's fused individually! there's a fuse for the left hand side and another for the right, might be worth checking?
