The main electrical connector to the rear hatch, under the rubber boot in the top right corner, has two wires that are pretty badly burnt. One purple, the other black (I think). It's causing my rear wiper to work erratically (slow, gets stuck, etc). I've read about a few others having the same issue, but I haven't seen a preferred fix anywhere.
The 'cheap' thing for me to do would be to cut the affected wires back from the connector, add a piece of wire to join them together with some nice connections, and pass the wires right through the connector. I am pretty sure it would work that way, but it's kind of a pain and not really a correct fix.
Has anyone else fixed this? What did you do? Is there a repair connector kit or something available?
