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 :-[

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 :) ;) ;D

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 ?

;D

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 8)

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?
