Rear defroster not working

That weather seal isn’t rocket science. Make your own connector.

The closest I see is the Standard Motor Products S-1321, but it doesn't seem to have the pin guide blue cover on the female connector. Look it up and there are additional pics online.

But even that doesn't have the pin guide. Strange
Can't seem to find the actual harness anywhere though. I hate cutting wires and rather just re-harness and be done, but I can't find a part number for it anywhere. Grrrrr

Are you looking for the liftgate harness, or the body harness? Not sure where the body harness goes.

Both? I think?
The plug is fried at both ends, so, both need to be replaced

All I see for the liftgate harness is GM 15118093. Good luck with availability if that's the one.

EDIT: maybe 40438, 121165, or 15173014 SWAGes

Found the lift-gate side I think.

Probably need to hit the salvage yard for the other end.

I’m not one to do half assed repairs but hear me out.

What if you de-pin the four bad pins from connectors and then plug them back together. Then, run a pair of wires though the spaces in the connectors and solder/heatshrink them. You can force some RTV throught the connector and be on your way. You may never need to touch that connector again.

Just tossing it out there.

Seen this done on youtube and it works nicely.
