Connect a multimeter from one connector to the other and see if you have
continuity with the switch ON.
If you do, then the grid is bad. That's easily fixed with defroster paint
from any auto supply shop.
If you do NOT, then you've got an electrical problem, probably having to do
with a bad switch.
My money is on that the grid is fine and it's an electrical problem.
