UGH!, What Now

Also, if you changed the halogen coolant more often your headlight switch would not overheat so easily.

Well I know that NOW!!! LOL!! I've already gotten rid of the car, much to my chagrin. I'm just trying to pass on my learned knowledge of fluid for lighting systems. I don't know everything about them, I think viscosity might also have a bearing on it as I would think a lower surface tension would allow for more free flow, but that doesn't explain the Xenon gel, so that just throws a wrench into my whole theory....

DiElectric grease is what you were thinking of. Also, if you changed the halogen coolant more often your headlight switch would not overheat so easily.

Exactly, that's what I used when I installed my Grant wheel, I had some left over form the tune up with new plugs and wires.

The grease these other guys are talking about is used to keep the crystals lubed on the engine of the Enterprise, that won't help here.

I use a lubricant called Sil Glide on the horn contacts.

I don't think the words 'lubricant' and 'glide' should be used in the same sentance..... but that's just me.

But.....you just did?

I think they would disagree > Lube & Glide
