Engine needs to be running ( NOT enough to have just the ignition on) to check for power on the FRONT heated windscreen. and there are two seperate elements which I think are seperately fused.

Fuse 38 right hand side,fuse 41 left hand side. Both located in the battery side fusebox. If you remove the grill around the wipers you will see the connectors to each side at the base of the screen. You MAY be able to locate them without removing the grill if you are lucky. Relay 18 in the same box also covers the screen.

They are probably just reflectors. Check if you have lights underneath the door, if not, then they're probably just reflectors.

Check the earth connections at the bottom of the window on each side other than that try another relay.

If its NOT the relay then I would suspect the heated element in both sides of the window have gone, but others might have more info .

On my Ultima they light up when you open the door. Must have a permanent live because you do not need the ignition or lights on for them to activate.

check fuse f24 as this feeds the central timer that controls entry lights the screen switch is feed via this (engine on)you should have 12v on pin86 (relay coil) that feed is via the engine run relay f34. you should have 12v on pin 30 of screen relay which is switched to feed screen, out of pin 87. the switch light will not come on untill the l/h screen powers up. if the relay is not in power will not feed through to switch
