Quickest check is to remove relay from fuse panel and temporarily substitute with another relay from the panel that has the same color and plug arrangement. Possible relay contact has corroded due to lack of use in your climate.

I have similar problem, only about half the rear defroster works, only half the fros will dissapear, no matter how long the defrost is on the rest will not melt, any input?

Just an idea,

Have you tried the plugs on the back window? i think there is one on each side. If only one, try cleaning then reconnect.

Sounds like the conductive paint is scratched through somewhere between the part that works and the part that doesn't, probably on the wide strip at the side, or all the lines that don't work are scratched.

If you look closely in the right light you should see it.

Go to the store and ask for some defroster repair paint.
Clean the area and mask off the edges. Then use the conductive paint. Let it dry thoroughly before using.

well i got a prob w/ mine too. when i got it from th dealer, the defroster wasnt working right. id press the button and nothing happend. i took out button and noticed that the wires were plugged into the spare thing to the right of the defroster button. so i put em back into the button. but now when i hit the buton, the little light indicating that its on doesnt come on.... i dont know what u guys mean by a relay switch behind the fueses and stuff...i dunno..
