? on LED door switch

OK, I'm doin the Interior Widow switch mod and I am working on the rear door window switch. I ran into a small problem, I got the LED off the board, but one side of the "contacts" came off with the LED. I can't get solder to stick to the board now, is there anything I can do, or am I up a creek? Any help is much appreciated!

Cheers

I think there is a glue they make for boards you can get at Radio Shack, try that.

Do you have the contact? If so, just slip it back on and soder over it and it will stay down

I'm also working on a swap right now, I finished all the window switches, working on the climate control. All the lights are in but the buttons don't work anymore XD have to fix that

well .. the board is toast I guess, no solder will stick to it. I will look on "parts f/s" and see if I can find what I need. Thanks for the help anyway! Cheers!

Well ... anyone know if ther is another 1.5v (or close) lead on the rear door switch? I can't get solder to stick where the contacts came off of the positive side of the board. The rest of the switches look very nice, glad I took the time to do them.

I will try to prod the board with my meter and see what I can find. I couldn't find a switch on the classifieds forums, oh well ... I don't really wanna spend any $$ if I don't have to.

Cheers!
