Boat Lights and Corrosion, Tech Info!!!!!
As some of you know, I teach electronics...I have received several private emails concerning (what to do about) corrosion and the boat running lights....This is what to do:
Use bulb grease. It is a conductive lubricant that prevents corrosion in the prongs and recepticles of the light fixtures...Clean the prongs and recepticles good (get the lights working) then apply a small amount of this lubricant on the prongs and recepticles of the lighting devices...Don't apply too much, as the lubricant is conductive..
I use it in my boat trailer lights, boat dock lights, boat running lights, battery connectors, etc..Works very good... If and when you have to replace a bulb, it comes out easily without breaking....
Most new cars, trucks, etc.. comes with this stuff applied to the lighting system....you can get it at most local auto parts store....BULB GREASE!!! It works wonders....
My input for what it is worth...
Happy Crappie Days,
