Wirring loom cleaning

[petak]

Hello to everyone!

I have come to stage where i need to arrange car wiring loom.
I have found some wires that need to be changed, and that is not a problem.

Biggest trouble i have with conectors.
They are oxidized heavily, dirty and greasy.

How can i clean them without dimanteling cenectors?

One that are out of plastic boxes i can clean with sandpaper but would like to avoid cleaning this way if there is better way!

Can someone give me some peace of advise how to sort out this problem?

Thank you all for reading!

petak!

I would first spray with an aerosol contact cleaner, then try gently scrubbing them with a toothbrush using a degreaser, dry them carefully, first with a paper towel, then give them a light blow with a hairdrier. Once clean and reassembled, then re-spray with the electric contact cleaner

Thank you for your reply!

I was wondering to put them in ultrasonic bath (only connectors not whole wiring)

But this solution is very easy to do, and must say that i like it!

Thank you
