- You may reattach the rear defogger bus bar lead wire or terminal by resoldering the wire.
- Before soldering the bus bar, buff the repair area with fine steel wool. This removes the oxide coating formed during the glass manufacture.
- Use a brush in order to apply a paste-type rosin flux in small quantities to the following locations:
- Use only enough heat in order to melt the solder.
- Coat the soldering iron tip with solder.
- Use only enough solder in order to ensure a complete repair.
Notice: Use only enough heat to melt the solder. Using excessive heat can damage the rear window defogger components or the rear window.
Important: Use a solder containing 3 percent silver and a rosin flux paste.
