Towing question: Does anybuddy know a way to slow or stop the corrosion that seems to be a constant on the electrical contacts of my towing connector? I just cleaned them up a couple weeks ago, and t

I have been fighting the same problem! I keep cleaning them up and in two or weeks they get kinda green again. I'm a little scared about the dielectric grease # I'm afraid it might cause a dead Short

or Just checked the info on the container for a tube of Dielectric Grease. It is used as an insulator for spark plug boots to minimize arc tracking AND as a lubricant to help remove the boots after 3

Good question -- is dielectric grease conductive? I can be less than precise at times (like when I'm stuffing grease on contacts), and I'd hate for my trailer brakes to come on every time I put on a

Say what? Mine is towed on an open trailer, in thunderstorms. I check the critical connections once a year including the coil quick connects which are exposed to the rain. The biggest concern is the

Its not going to cause a short. I have been using this stuff for about 20 years with no failures. The dielectric grease has micro particles of iron filings in it to conduct electricity. Works great

That's an oxymoron. "Dielectric" means "insulator". An insulator can't cause a short. The contacts push the dielectric grease out of the way at the point of contact. The dielectric grease surrounds t

Dielectric grease and conductive grease are different animals with similar uses. There is conductive grease that is uses to make a better contact with less corrosion. Normally it is some conductive p

I used to use dielectric grease on my trailer connector - and it still got some serious corrosion. I put a new connector on the hitch earlier this summer, and asked our local trailer dealer's mechani

Use a little dab of conductive grease on the terminals for your trailer connection and that should take care of the corrosion problem. Just be sure it says "conductive" on the packaging - and you do
