If it’s not related to fuse or anything else then I would say. The person who did the window tint last time and removed it then it damaged the lines and that’s how it will not work. Happened to my ls430 and only few lines were working. Hopefully yours is about fuse etc

Fuse panels are located in the trunk, footwells and under the hood. Your manual will tell you which fuse is the defroster. Then check the filaments in the glass to see if they are all intact.

Mine doesn't seem to work either. Or if it is working, it can't keep up. I'll have to spend some time to see what the issue is.. This is one of the few times I wish the car threw codes for everything like the Audi. Makes finding and solving issues so much easier.
