Hmmm, not sure what wires do what on that connector. I think I would carefully remove the glass, then test the two spade terminals.

There is a guide, but I think the glass comes out easily enough with it in-situ.

If theres no spade terminals, glass isn't heated  :( ::) ;)

Pretty certain they didn't may be wrong and as dbug says may well have had glass changed?
