Okay so I found this damage while investigating why my defroster wasn’t working. I want to replace the scorched plastic tab connector, and reattach the tab to the window. Has anyone done this before?
there has to be a short somewhere or something else is wrong, otherwise the connector wouldn't be scorched / just replacing it is asking for trouble /
Not necessarily. The most common failure is caused by the connection point being broken. IF it was only partially damaged so that became a point of high resistance............excessive heat at that point might result. I suggest that he check with an auto glass shop or two.
Well I have a multimeter so I can check all the elements and circuits to make sure they are within spec
