wipper,
Are you sure it doesn't get warm? I've noticed with my Ex that it takes a little while to melt the snow off. I thought they weren't working either at first, but they eventually did the job. They are big mirrors and take awhile to warm up I guess.

i know it is not working because the passenger side mirror melted the snow and the driver side did not i even cycled the defroster twice. what i need to know is it the glass or possible some thing else

Well wipper,
It's time to take it back to the dealer. If one side worked and the other side didn't you may have a short or some wiring trouble. You may have a defective mirror element. Or it could be something else. But you definitely have a problem. So it's back to Ford for ya! Good luck!
