DO you hear anything when you switch the heater on? A click, or motors running? Were the wipers and heater on at the same time?

Any sound at all? Blowing the fuse that the wiper shares with the heater is evidence that there's a short or a motor that is frozen, etc. Something is drawing too much current.

The heater switch black wire goes to fuse S10 (Bentley Pg 97.24). There is a reset switch under the dash at the base of the lower steering column cover.

operate this red switch gently -if you feel /hear a "twang" then this indicates a component malfunction/failure.

You should troubleshoot the problem before attempting to restart the heater.

See the troubleshooting guide on Betley pages 82.10-82.11.
