... I've had a similar problem on the car that sat with a moist interior due
to the leaking windshield seal ... grrrr.

I've found that by working the switch repeatedly the function gets better
... which tends to implicate the switch.  I have plans to hit all the
switches on that panel with DeoxIT when I take the dash apart to do the same
with the instrument cluster ...

Right...it's not working.  Orange/yellow switch light seems tempermental. 
It may take as many as ten attempts at pushing the button before switch
seems to 'catch' and light comes on.  Even then, rear defroster doesn't seem
to work.  I still need to check for power at the window when the switch is
on (lit up) so I haven't completed diagnostics.  It's quite cool up here in
Canada these days....car starts up beautifully, to its credit.
