Heated rear window in my 93 200TDi 110 is not working.

Long story short, so far I have found two reasons:
(a) Some toe-rag has removed the HRW relay from its socket :eek:
(b) There is no +volts at the Voltage Sensitive Switch. (According to wiring diagram it should be a permanent live.)
So, four questions, please:

  1. What is the part number for the HRW relay? (Or can I just plug in a 'standard' 30A relay?)
  2. Any clues on how to test the Voltage Sensitive Switch off-vehicle?
  3. Any idea where the other end of the +ve wire to the VSS emerges from the wiring loom?
  4. Suggestions for a low-current permanent live feed behind dash that I can tap as an alternative to (3)? (Don't want to cut into a thick wire, such as for headlights.)
Cheers

I have searched previous posts, and none provides the answer, so once the HRW is fixed I will update this thread with my fault-finding suggestions.
