Default Rear Window Demister

Car MY98,just noticed that the top 2 and bottom 3 heating element not "heating" up window to demist when switched ON.
Have checked all the fuses,all seems ok.Looking closely at the heating elements doesnt seem to have any broken element.
Any ideas?
TIA.

It's bound to be the heating element on the blink. AFAIK there is NO cure, just a new screen, (expensive).

You could try a breakers: I bought a WRX screen, rear wash-wipe motor and washer reservoir, and wiper stalk for my '98 car from GradeA for £200 and now have a UK car with a fully functioning rear wash-wipe.

Thanks Alcazar.At least I still can see through the middle part of the rear window and just hope that the middle part of those heating element stays healthy.
