Re: interesting problem with rear glass heater. 200 85

One question: "the element gets power" Did you check for power with the element connected or disconnected?

High resistance connection anywhere along the 12 volt supply line or bad ground connection can still show 12 volts on your meter with the element disconnected but when the load is connected it can drop to 0

BTW It will not heat the glass to the extent that you could feel with your hand but I assume you are aware of that.
