[QUOTE="WestCoastDan, post: 461703, member: 23120"] Excellent. Like yourself and so many others, the rear window defrost wire came off of our ‘15 as well. Not sure how you fixed yours, but I was able to remove the snap/button from the connector, grip it from the face with a pair of forceps, then heat it to almost red hot w/ a MAP torch. The forceps allowed me to place the heated snap/button right back onto the original solder location. I don’t recall if I added any solder to the equation, but probably not. I was skeptical of trying to solder it w/ my iron, and didn’t trust the epoxy kits. Completing a handful of small projects usually makes me feel better than finishing a single, large project.
