What do you all use for cleaning the trailer side of the 7-pin? Female side.

Brake cleaner is good to clean out and de-grease. After you do that, I would add some dielectric grease to keep the contacts clean and rust free.

Clean? If it's got **** in it I just smack it on the side of the hitch and shove it in. [emoji847]

I used WD-40, put the tube into each plug hole and sprayed away the crap and lubed the connections at the same time. The I discovered CorrosionX which is far better at corrosion than WF-40.
