remember every1 just pack the plug not the pins on the card itself

Thanks, email is kbailey at maybury dot com. Have you tried Deoxit. I think it does a nice job of protecting the contacts. I do still use the di-electric compound, just not in all apps.
We've seen some slip-up whereas trucks have gone out the production door with nothing in the card connectiors ( EV100 ). During customer installation, we do pack them with compound.

this was just more for "after the fact" info for any1 with similar issues

i thought that electrical cleaners were supposed to evaporate leaving no residue behind
the point of the lube is that the pins move slightly
the lube keeps them from exposing the base metal and oxidizing
you really want it goopy and not just a slight film of leftover residue
im sure noname dielectric would work but id rather use what GE recommends

whats your email?
ill send you the GE sheet about the lube on PDF

the GE kit costs a lot cause of the cleaner it comes with (powr blast cz i think) is like 50 bucks per 12 oz can alone
the lube is like 10 bucks for a tube and it has enough that you can use on a hundred cards
the kit comes with 2 tubes and 1 can of spray
youll run outta spray on the 5th card you service lol
i just use permatex nonconductive + lube
we used to use Deoxit but it is conductive i believe
the spray GE recommends probably doesnt harm the plastic plug nor does the Deoxit
the permatex doesnt seem to harm them either (i tested it before the 1st time i tried it on a spare plug)

Thanks Justin, but if you see in my first post, thats the first thing I did was to check the 'z' connector pins. That no F & R , no-code has been around for years. Pull the 'Z' connector, clean it and off you go. That lube is nothing more than di-electric compound. I don't use it so much any more especially on EV100 connectors. We use Deoxit contact cleaner. It's expensive but well worth it. The protectant it leaves on the pins is excellent, far superior to just di compound alone, ( as long as you have tight pins anyway ). You can check out that product at Deoxit.com.

remember sometimes its the actual pins in the plugs
when you get codes like this always unplug and replug the A B Y Z
sometimes that will clear odd codes or no F&R w no codes (dirty B plug)
if if unplugging works, hit it nonconductive cleaner and lubricate the pins
see the post i made like a week ago in the tech forums under the thread "EV100 WOES" for the part number for the EV100 pin lube kit
youre also supposed to use this on the gen 2 plugs (but they should have been lubed at the factory on anything built after 1999)

I am going to make a note beside that code.
That is useful information, thanks!

FYI, it was the card. Replaced the EV100 card, set it up, and it ran fine. The card was not seeing the current sensor circuit.

Thanks roadrat. I thought it was however I have exhausted all diagnosis for this code so I went on to a no contactor pull in situation. Tried the usual 2, 5 , 1 rec's with no results, so I went back to thinking about the current sensor circuit. I'm thinking the card may not be seeing the current sensor circuit and will try a card on Monday. Any thoughts?

Ev-100 LX Code 42---no motor sensor input---yellow wire
