Put some type of residual contact cleaner on it like "no-ox" or I use a spray called "blue stuff" (not blue shower) on pots and contacts with excellant results.

Hi All In the past couple of years I have had to make four long trips (360 round trip mi each) to reseat connector problems in the GE Mastr II and MVP radios. The environment is ideal with air conditioning in the low desert South West. The fault has always been on a contact carrying less than a mA (dry). Other than wiring around the open connection or just re-seating the connectors a half dozen times does anyone have a better suggestion? If the pins are silver plated would moth balls be in order? Remember the moth balls in the Centralab switch boxes to prevent oxidation? Gran K6RIF
