Clean electrical contacts
#1
#2
If badly corrode/dull I used fine wire wool with contact spray , then finished of with a toothbrush and the spray. The female halves can be quite hard to get clean, so a tiny file down them if they did not look very bright after the toothbrush treatment. Fine emery paper is good too, and can be rolled into a tiny tube for the female connections.
What I can say is that all the effort is really well worth it. After my redoing all the dash, console and engine bay and bulkhead connectors I could find, everything works more "confidently" and snappily, somehow. The earth connections wherever they may be are also extremely important to clean and protect with grease.
