The cable connector has become detatched from the heated rear window on my



110. Is there some sort of glue that will conduct electricity thaI can use to refix the connector?

You can get a special conductive paint (sorry, can't remember the name) specifically for repairing broken elements in HRWs. Maybe that would do it? Motor accessory shops would be my first port of call.

Must have been a wild party you had in there :)

Woulsn't it be better/simpler to use solder?

Not if it's become detatched from the glass!

I don't think conductive paint will glue the connector back on to the glass. What you need is silver loaded epoxy adhesive. I don't think Maplin's do it, RS components do, but they are not cheap, I am sure someone knows of a cheaper source.

New window glass £40 ish and gunge it in with dum dum.
