rear defroster

Sebring 2001 lx convert Rear window defrost cable.
Anyone have a solution to keeping the power supply wire glued to the window? Dealer fixed it twice it broke off again when top was lowered/raised.

Got the same problem and posted here with no replies. If you come up with solution let me know and I'll do the same for you. Thanks, Fred

The only fix that chrysler(at least the dealer that I bought mine from) has found to work is to replace the window, but that could be pretty spendy. check out this site.

You should find some info out there that will fix it for a while.

I have a 1999 Sebring JXI Convertible. The same thing happened to me twice. The dealer fixed it one. It fell off again. So I took it back and then the dealer replaced the whole back window. Lo and behold, the rear defroster fell off again. So disgusted I finally took it to a automotive glass shop. They glued it on for me, and that was 3 years ago. Knock on wood, it's still 100%.

My 1999 Sebring JXI convertible had the same problem. Not once but twice did I get it fixed. The second time the dealer replaced the rear window. Still fell off. So I finally took to an automotive glass repair shop and they glued it for me. That was 3 years ago and still holding strong! Give it a try.

Thanks for the input. I'll work on it till its needed. Let you know what I come up with.

I haven't tried it myself yet, though I have had one of the tabs come off of my rear window. I just read on a different post of someone who found conductive sealant and glued it on himself with great results.
