Need good contact cleaner

[Burninator]

I need recommendation for a good contact cleaner for the large connector going to my 86 venture solenoids. I traced air suspension problems to the connector, tried a head cleaner that seemed to work but the problem came back. I don't think the cleaner did a good enough cleaning job.

 

Does anyone know of a good way to clean those pesky contacts in the connector?

any electronics store or radio shack will carry contact cleaner just ask for it

Chris...got your email...I'm at work but will msg U bak with the product I used this evening. FYI...I got it at an electronics supplies store...small spray can...cost appx $9 up here. They had several different kinds so I explained to the guy what I needed it for and he recommended the one I got would be best.

Our local electrical Guru GeorgeS recommends CRC 2-26

CRC is good stuff, several kinds for different applications, just make sure it is plastic safe. Chemtronics makes a good cleaner, but more expensive, geared for high end applications where certification is needed or desired.

The one I got is called "Deoxit D5" and it is safe around plastic. Made by CAIG Laboratories.

Any auto parts store will carry contact cleaner if you can't find a Radio Shake.

Per GeorgeS' recomendation I went out and tried to find CRC 2-26, but couldn't. What I did end up with is CRC's QD Electronic Cleaner. Works good. The QD is for quick dry... Probably the same stuff???

Home Depot, and Lowes should have it in Home Electrical Supply Section.

 

Some auto parts stores carry the stuff also.
