Check for voltage at one side, and ground at the other. The fastest way would be to touch the leads to both sides of the grid. If there is no voltage, then check each side for it's respective value (volts or ground).
If there is a good ground, and good volts, then the grid may be damaged. Just to add, mine took a good 25 minutes to completely clear this AM.Had to hit it again after it timed out. The first time only cleared the area at the grid lines. These are definitely not made for near 0º F temps. Without some help from cabin temperature. The second round, the heater had began to put some heat out.

Probably shouldn't listen to anything your penis says, that guy's a dick.
Too much time spent here is a sign of a bad case of Ownaneonvirus.Patience, of course, is a very powerful weapon, but sometimes I start to regret that it is not a firearm.
