    Electrical pin cleaning

    I am having some wiring issues with my C405 connector (that's the one in the door jam that has the lines for windows, locks, and mirrors).
    There is some corrosion on the pins that is preventing a good connection.

    Simply spraying in contact cleaner (albeit cheap stuff from Canadian Tire) is not making much of a difference.

    Is there a way to disassemble to pins, ie. remove the pins from the holder so that I can clean them? Or is there a better way to clean them?

    Yes with a pin out tool. Some terminals may require replacement.
