Alsofor the record, corrosion will not overload a system, it prevents current flow, that's why electrical systems are slow or don't work when connectors become corroded.
Just sayin.

That depends on a number of things. An intermittent or arching connection can destroy some ciruits. Heat coud also potentially become an issue.

As I said earlier, dielectric grease is non-conductive. It does not promote current flow. It's a case of some is good, but to much can have an adverse effect. It is great on all connectors as a sealant (that is it's intended use).
I have also used it on ECM and PMC connectors, but sparingly.

Not what it says on the package. Says helps prevent corrosion and increases electrical flow. :confused:

Stupid question:

If I unplug the ECM to grease the connection will it reset or screw anything up on the computer? anything I should know before doing this?
