Rallye dash and wiper switch question

Glad my instructions worked for you. Sometimes translating what you mean in words is hard. Pictures are sometimes easier.

CLR is a product you can get at lowes or home depot in the household cleaners aisle. Stands for Calcium, lime, rust. An alternate is Noxon. These products along with a small steel wire brush and you can polish up the contacts before repinning them. Then you dunk the ends in water to rinse them off, and dry with a paper towel and a little compressed air.

To clean, I hold the connector and its attaching wire down against a piece of plywood , dip the wire brush in CLR or noxon and scrub the connector, then flip it over and scrub the other side.

After cleaning, bend the tang back out to allow it to lock into the connector. You can also take a small pair of plyers and squeeze the female spade slightly to make it to where it grips the male spade tightly again when plugged in.

Male spades are easier to clean and use a small pair of electronics needle nose plyers to remove. Hard to describe, you put the plyers in on the front of the connector and squeeze. This pulls its tang inward, then you pull the wire and connector out of the back of the plug. After cleaning bend its tang back out and reinsert the connector.

When i repin connectors i slways pull back on the wire a little to make sure its locked into the plug.
