The little lead plate on the wire which attaches to the defroster grid on
the rear window (driver's side of rear) of my Ford Windstar came off. I
reglued it with the glue you use to reattach a rearview mirror to the
glass. While the lead stayed on the glass, it did not make contact. When i
took a voltmeter and attached one end to the lead and the other to the grid,
i got a reading, so the current is good to the lead (or grid at least). Any
suggestions on how to get the current to flow through the crazy glue, or do
i need to use some of that copper paint to paint over the lead and have it
make contact with the grid wires? Please email replies to
johnagner@hotmail.com and thanks.

There are repair kits for that, that conduct current. Crazy glue doesnt
conduct current

We usually dont email here, thank you very much
