Rear Defrost doesn't work, what do i need to replace?
My rear window defroster doesnt work anymore. Do i just need to replace the timer? It doesn't turn on at all, and at the end of its life only turned on for a short time before it would turn off.

Your description points to the timer. Check for continuity through the grid, and for voltage to the timer. If you have voltage to the timer, and are not getting anything out of it, the reasonable assumption is that the timer is not functioning.

Go after the circuit breaker in the fuse box in the dash. Little silver can in the top row. I'm on my third one
 since I bought the car 6yrs ago. When it goes, it will slowly shorten the amount of time it stays on, until *poof* - no more. Still available from RMS, P/N 12077863, $11.50.

Worst case scenario you could replace the entire rear window.
