To fix the back defroster in a VW Cabrio, first check the fuse related to the defroster circuit, as a blown fuse can prevent it from functioning. If the fuse is intact, inspect the wiring and connections at the rear window for damage or corrosion. Additionally, ensure the defroster switch is working properly. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the rear window heating element may be faulty and might require replacement.
