Answer
PAUL ;
 HI - > I would first get some spray starting fluid and try to clean the switches out good so they can make contact.
do not smoke or do not turn the switch on and off when spraying it could get on fire. If the motors are working than the switches must be bad or dirty.
And as far as the defogger , have you looked at the fuse , if it is good than I would try to hot wire it ,and if it still dos'nt work than it is burnt out.  >> OK
