Should I use something on my electrical connectors?

[dilley340]

I'm getting ready to install new wire harness assemblies and was wondering if I should spray some sorta electical connector grease or lube in them. If so, what should I use?

NoLox, you can get it at Home Depot in the electrical dept. I use it on all connections.

Thanks Robbie2734.

I've been using a di-lectric lubricant . I dont know how good it is but its cheap at Harbor Freight tools ( 1 dollar ). It's surely better than nothing.

Cool... thanks RedFish.

Just make sure you RESEARCH what you propose to use and that it's not corrosive.

(Some RTV products are not the best for 'sealing' electronics/ electronic connections, along with other type products)

ANY grease approved for electrical (nolox) is fine.

i use that permatex dielectric grease on everything. a little goes a long way and the tube will last a long time.
