A flight instructor where I last did avionics for profit was also a personal boat enthusiast. His expressed belief was "ALL electric problems in boats and automobiles are CAUSED by bad grounds." After a couple of beers one night we agreed that airplanes should be included in the ALL part of that. -- --> The best programming tool is a soldering iron <--

    All, Ain't that (almost) the truth. If you look around the supply houses, on eBay from time to time, etc., you will find a set of the answers to clean contacts, including cleaning ring terminals. They are a shaft that goes in a drill, the shank comes in #30, 40 etc., and has an abrasive bundle around the shank. The abrasive surfaces are arranged so that they scour the contact area. Haven't has a problem with a high resistance contact since I bought a set. Sorry, no name on them.
