Rear Window Demister 200 1989

I have an old 1989 Volvo 240 DL. The rear window demister is not working at this time. When I push the button in, the associated fuse quickly blows. I pulled the dash switch and checked for continuity, and it appears to be working properly. I also visibly checked the rear window grid, and could not see anything unusual. Could anyone help me with this issue. Thanks!

Assuming your 240DL is a 245, you might need to repair or replace the wiring harness(es) passing through your tailgate hinges. If not, and it is a sedan, then you've got some sleuthing to do.
