Cleaning ignition connector terminals
Original Message   May 23, 2005 1:25 pm
I am trying to clean the terminals within the wiring harness connector that plugs into the ignition switch.   It seems like if you put the screwdriver in the right place they should be free.  Has anyone had any luck with how to do this, and have directions and tips for me?

AJ - GREAT post & pics!!

I found my problem. After cleaning the ALL ignition switch terminals, I still had the problem. Back to square one. For some reason I would lose my 12 volts at the switch when I engaged the starter. The culprit ended up being a corroded, melted fuse holder with only 22 gauge wires feeding it ....  Replaced it with a quality, automotive type & we're good to go.
