I pared off a couple of narrow(ish) wedge-shaped slivers from a nylon tie rap and wedged them in to the connector on each side of the metal conductor which was spreading apart. I cut off the excess and put everything together and I've had no problem in several months, since when you put the connector back into the MFS it holds everything tightly together.

Thanks for the welcome and tip. Had a similiar problem with the window connectors also that connect to the master window switch, one of my back windows didn't work due to the female connection.

Also since we are on suggestions, to any "noob" out there like myself , if you have a "U-Wrench It" (depends on the area, called U-Pull it also) junk yard place near by. Check it out first before any local JY! The MFS I bought for $65 from a local JY, could have gotten their for $15 (doh!), had to buy a master window switch also.. that was $12. Was my first time in one of those places, felt good to save money!

But there is always something! Thought I had everything ok to pass inspection, but it failed today due to a back strut being blown. Knew it needed to be replaced, but didnt know it was that bad. Luckily sears has a strut sale going on and 30% off labor, a little bit over $300 for replacing the back 2 and alignment. Will learn how to do those one day
