No. Details for the fix are here:

 

Estate Rear Screen Non Opening

 

The reason that glass does not open is that the two conductors that carry the short that occurs when you press the button are damaged. They are inside the window itself, but not part of the heater.

 

You need to run a discrete cable to connect the button to the right wires at the top of the tailgate.

 

It costs almost nothing and takes 20 minutes.

 

If you are stuck send a mail to c5 at steveu dot org and I'll forward the PDF file to you.
