Contralube

Contralube is a special synthetic grease that is recommended for electrical contacts and the like to prevent corrosion and degradation.

After reading a few posts of recommendation on CT I purchased some and liberally applied it to the 13-pin plug and socket of the Orion,also applied some to the battery posts.

The easiest way to coat the pins ( and the sockets ) is  to put a good blob on the socket holes and insert the plug which coats the pins and sockets nicely.

Contralube is about £7 or so a tube,got mine from Maplins but other outlets are available.
