I’ve definitely dealt with my share of electrical problems caused by dirt and moisture messing with connectors. What’s your go-to strategy for cleaning and protecting them? I’m all ears for any advice on how to keep things running smoothly on those muddy rides!
 
I always apply dielectric grease to the connectors to block out moisture and dirt. A quick clean with contact cleaner and a soft brush gets everything looking good. It really helps when you’re tackling muddy trails.
 
For me it’s essential to seal the connectors and use silicone spray to keep them dry.
After each ride, I make sure to clean the connectors with contact cleaner to prevent dirt from building up,
especially in those muddy spots
 
I've been caught out before, so now I always spray connectors with a bit of electrical contact cleaner and then add dielectric grease for extra protection. It stops moisture and dirt from causing issues, especially when you’re deep in the mud.
