Skoda Octavia Rear Window Heating Problem

My 2015 Skoda Octavia Diesel has a rear window heating issue. It's not working. There's an error stored. Mileage is about 31383 km. Could a bad battery cause this?

I had a similar heating problem with my Octavia, though I don't remember the exact error. Is the windshield heating also weaker? My rear window and demister were dead. Did you check the fuses first? Any other electrical issues?

Yes, the windshield heating is not working well. Fuses are okay. It's strange that it happened suddenly. How did you fix yours? Was it a defroster repair, or something else?

My problem was a very discharged battery. Modern cars focus on essential functions when the battery is low. Get the battery checked before doing more expensive repairs. Go to a workshop.

Thanks for the insight. It was the battery, really discharged. Replaced it, and the rear window heating is working again. Cost 290€, but at least it's fixed for winter.
