Back window demister lines ___ _________

[dads Taxi x3]

Hi as we was out in the car today and its been raining very heavey the car misted up  (as usual.  ) but noticing that the back demister lines are not demisting  iv had a quick look and one or two are ______ _____

So I can see a couple of brakes in the gold tape stuff .I already had on hand the copper paint stuff but it's not worked (don't know if the stuff still works sound of it no) .

Any one else have this problem . 

I 1st bought the car it misted up quite a bit  so I got a fruit bag (white net type) and bought silicon cat litter which absorbs moisture so I have had this in the boot and under the seat and its helped a lot . But today the bot misted up an lines would not demist the back window .

Never had to change a demister on the back window of one of my cars.

But concerning the last part,  a few topics were handling tye subject.

Check the connectors on the back window. You'll probably find there has been a bodge 'repair' that doesn't work.

You can buy a separate window heater to fix your problem the next few years..

It's a cheap alternative ..

Just an example, cheaper solutions exist.
