Dielectric grease is an insulator and you would not think it would be good
for electrical connections. But it is because the greases is squeezed away
from the actual mechanical connection while the metal parts of the connector
remain coated, protecting everything from oxidation.

Subject: Digifant overview/troubleshooting / stabilant 22

I stumbled upon this useful explanation of VWs Digifant system (applicable
to 86-91 Vanagons)

Most of the information applies to us, although there are some minor errors
in his write-up when pertaining to Vanagons.

Interesting how he is a fan of Stabilant 22, a "dielectric grease" for
electrical connections.
