  • How to clean white/oxidized jones connectors

    From Tony Cape@tcape72@gmail.com to rec.games.pinball on Sunday, November 01, 2020 04:43:20

    I have a Gottlieb Bronco machine I am restoring and most of the connectors have this white coating on them. What is the best way to clean up connectors in this condition and/or basic cleaning just to insure proper connection?
    Thanks!

    I used CLR on a similar issue. 1/2 CLR and half water. Scrubbed them good. Rinsed off. And dried thoroughly.
