Electrical plug contact cleaning and maintenance
#1
I'd like to do some preventative maintenance to prevent corrosion of metal electrical contacts in the 2P, 3P and 4P plug connectors for the various sensors including TPS, EOT, IACV, etc. I'm thinking, rightly or wrongly, that some of the low/high idle issues seen by some CB owners could be due to some corrosion on the leads in the plug connectors resulting in intermittent electrical connection problems to and from the ECU.

I'm thinking of unplugging the connector and using an electronics cleaner such as [url=https://www.amazon.com/CRC-5103-Quick-Electronic-Cleaner/dp/B000BXOGNI#Ask]this product from CRC to clean the contacts and then perhaps adding a bit of dielectric grease before reconnecting the plug.

Sound reasonable? If not, other suggestions for products and/or methods to use would be welcome.
