Waterproof electrical system my ***..........

I took the whole assembly out because the three bolts holding the
motor down were loose. When I turned the assembly over, a bunch of
semi-rusty water poured out of the motor. I removed the rubber
cover and there was water in the contacts around the gear portion
of the motor. What a cheap French made part. I'll have to plop down
$117 for a new motor. I'll seal the new one's electrical connections
with some coax-seal.

This makes a multifunction stalk, a turn signal switch and a headlamp switch to go
with a wiper motor. Did I say rust before? I'm glad my invoice was only $15,618.
The bushings on the front are going. I need another steering dampener. Which Rancho?

It will be 9 years old on 12-20. It's almost like it's going on 90!

Because the motor was still functioning, you very likely could get away
with using a can of WD40 to clean the guts out and then add grease back
where needed. The brass parking circuit circle uses dielectric grease.
You can get waterproof grease in small cans at plumbing supply stores or
just use bearing grease on the bushings.

We can use WD40 to clean an amazing amount of mud and crud out of
starters and the starters go on working for years after this. Even
seized up brushes come back to life.

WD40 is designed for this type of work, it is an excellent solvent and
cleaner and Water Displacer for electricals.
