W-D 40 and a small brass brush to clean the terminals. Although I do like the idea of Christmas lights. That would get Larry torqued up.

Maybe I'm just getting old or lazy, but for me the $75 I pay the trailer place to do them right is well worth the 2 years I typically get out of that investment, but then again I do have tube lights on guide ons (out of water) so that helps.

Tried doing it myself this spring, good ground, clean wires, nothing to indicate they shouldn't work, after 1-1/2 hours I figured that was enough. Drinkwater Trailer sales fixed me up and they work fine, look good and all the wiring is in flex tubing and protected, best $75 you can spend.

I am presently dealing with a light problem and I am thinking like you. I am no wiring expert and I am coaching My daughters softball team. I have no time to experiment. I just want to fish.
