Default Window Switch Circuit Board

Well, I have changed the LEDs in my driver side window switch one too many times. I ended up breaking off a little piece of the conductive material on the circuit board, and now the passenger window button on the drivers side switch won't light up. Anyone have any ideas on how I can make a good connection? A while back I used to have some conductive adhesive paint, but I don't remember where I got that from.

Does anyone have an extra circuit board for an 01 Tib, drivers side panel or know where there is one at a junk yard? I will pay anyone who has an extra in excellent shape, or anyone who can get one. I tried all the junkyards around here, nobody has a Tib.

Solder yourself a jumper from a piece of wire. Should work.

DUH!!!

Sometimes you just overlook the most obvious solution. I actually kinda did that with a large piece of solder, but it appears as though it is failing. I will do what you recommend as a temp solution, but I would prefer something a little more sturdy than a wire jumper. I used that adhesive paint to fix my rear window defogger strip on my Cobra, I just can't remember what it was called or where I got it from.

Hey tib, if that doesn't work, let me know. I can give you an extra switch assy I've got when I get back in July.
