Default heated mirror isn't working!!

my driver's side mirror isn't "heating". I noticed it last night, my passenger side was working, but the driver's side nothing. Same thing this morning on my way to work. Anyone have the same problem? I searched, but nothing.

Default Morning dew not "disappearing" like the other side does....

Also, when there's morning dew on the mirrors, (from parking outside overnight) you can actually see the steam coming off the mirrors when it's being heated up. The steam is from the morning dew on the mirror glass. One side will steam, the other will not.

Now that's just plain silly! Swap out a good car with a bad mirror for a bad car with a good mirror?
