switch the heated rear on with the engine running and check for voltage using a multimeter. check the 2 wires which connect to the rear window for voltage, should be around 12volts, if nothing check relay, fuse.

As you also have a problem with your rear wiper as you said on other thread, I would check the wiring that goes through to the rear hatchback door, it may have been crushed or the continual opening/closing of boot has damaged it.
