I can't help much as I don't run a windshield. I don't know anything about slipstream either other than it seems expensive. You might...

I think they are 18 gage multi-strand wire. It is odd that all three wires would be bad at the same time.

The yellow/black/green/blue plug looks correct, but the four whites in the other plug is definitely a head scratcher. Does the other...

I will let you in on the "secret handshake" of how you learn this. You really need to know two things: First is to determine a...
