Rear defroster issue

[John G]

Me again. Second post here! I'm looking at a 2004 XLT 5.4 2V. One of the coiled black cables on the rear glass defroster has come separated from the window. The whole plug assembly is still attached to the cable and looks fine. Can I attach it back with regular glue?

No you need to use a metallic glue. The make a special product for reattaching connectors.

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Truck-Defros...roster+repair+kit&refinements=p_72:2661618011

Or like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ALBZJ...SFD7EW2AMSTYM3HM0&ie=UTF8&qid=1506398999&sr=1

Would work. Read the reviews some are better than others. I used the bottom one to repair a wire on my old 05.
