8A - 34 AUDIO - SERVICE INFORMATION
6. For a rear glass antenna terminal replacement, mask the adjacent areas so the epoxy can be extended onto the
adjacent bus bar. Apply a thin layer of epoxy to the area where the terminal was previously fastened and onto
the adjacent bus bar line.
7. Apply a thin layer of conductive epoxy to the terminal and place it in the proper location on the rear glass
antenna bus bar. To prevent the terminal from moving while the epoxy is curing, it must be wedged or clamped.
8. Carefully remove the masking tape or template.
CAUTION: Do not allow the glass surface to exceed 400° F (204° C) or the glass may fracture.
9. Allow the epoxy to cure for 24 hours at room temperature.
10. After the conductive epoxy is properly cured, remove the wedge or clamp from the terminal. Do not attach the
wire harness connectors until the curing process is complete.
11. Check the operation of the rear glass antenna bus bar and/or terminal(s) with the audio system performance
levels.
