    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Cleaning connections

The connections are bad. We all know this. I get resistance into my ignition switch too.

So how does one clean the connections, particularly those in the small patcons under the fork, and in the ignition switch, which is sealed?

help!
 
Boats also have this problem. Disconnect the battery and rapidly twist the switch in both directions thru all the positions many times. If the corrosion isn't too thick that will remove the crud and make a clean contact.
 
At most auto parts stores you can buy electrical parts cleaner. It works pretty good. I haven't sprayed it into an ignition switch, but for small connectors and the like it works.
 
I've used good old WD-40 on ignitions of all types and it has cured the problem...just another thought. :?
