2006 bmw330i My rear defroster quit working. Does anyone have an idea how to fix it. Or where to look. I'll be taking it to the stealership but I thought I should ask here first.

1) Look in the trunk, near the hatshelf for the connector that hooks to the rear window, to make sure that it is connected, AND that it receives electricity when activated from the dashboard. If it receives 12 volts or so, then inspect visually the resistance lines in the window, and check that they are not scratched or broken. Electricity will not flow if those lines arent continuous. I am assuming that you checked for broken fuses first. Broken lines can be repaired.

Testimonial: "Thanks Wabbit, this should be a good place to start. I haven't check the fuse yet. Is it safe to pull the fuse out while the battery is hooked up? "

    Yes, it is safe to pull out the fuses for inspection with the battery connected. Just make sure that the ignition is OFF.

The rear wiper on my 2004 GMC Yukon quit working and about two weeks later the rear defrost quit working too. I have checked the fuses and they are ok. Any suggestions?

Same as with all vehicle issues

Check the fuses

Then get out the Wiring Diagrams & get familiar with the
system & pick a test point, or start taking things apart, to get
to the motor or your test points,the most logical part to
have possibly failed

No one can do that for you or tell you what the problems are

Always need a vehicle to test

2006 impala rear glass heater not working please help winter is coming...

Locate the fuse box. Look for rear defrost on label on cover of fuse housing; or your owners manual for this fuse. If this does not help, and your fuses are ALL in working order, then locate the wiring for your rear defrost and follow it. There may a breaking point.
