Rear defrost issue

I have heated mirrors and sliding rear window with defrost. Last spring the orange light on the heat control panel stopped coming on with the mirrors/defrost but they both still worked. Haven't used either until recently and the light still doesn't come on, the mirrors work fine but it seems the rear window defrost isn't. Has anyone had similar issues?

Hi nnero,

I'd recommend getting this in front of your dealership, especially now that the weather is getting colder. What's the current mileage on your truck?

Thanks for following up, nnero. Let me know if you decide to have your dealership inspect and I'll be able to look into ways to assist.
