Thanks Jonathan, looks like the terminals were covered with some type of grease in the past, possibly when built? It has degraded to that of a dark brown tar. While i was able to clean up the spade terminals the mating connectors on the wiring harness side are still full of the stuff, black and pretty much look like they need to be replaced. I'm just looking to find the best compound I can on the new connectors to keep them going. I thought of silicone grease as well, then thought about NOALOX that's used to prevent oxidation with aluminum house wiring.

Thanks on the avatar, took me a while to customize it and get it work work the way I wanted.
