Default Escort Heated Front Screen - Help Required!

With the Series 2 heated front screen there are three terminals to connect the associated wiring - one either side and one at the top. I have the screen fitted but the connectors are not installed. I imagine that by removing the screen it's possible to re-connect these in-place - however, how are these bonded to the screen in order to maintain the electrical current? Is there some type of sealant/solder that can be used?

Any help much appreciated!

Cheers
Ben

if you mean that the connectors have come offthe glass, then TBH, theres not a great deal you can do, if a terminal falls off a glass @ work, we tend to send it back to the manufacturers as defective

Do you have the connectors?
If so you may be lucky and just push them between the two laminates and hope they make contact with the element inside.

If not then you could try a small blade connector with a length of wire and connect it that way.

The two side connectors are your power and the one at the top is the earth and connects to the roof bracing if that helps out.

Matt.
