Uhh, are there any other special > instruction about cleaning the sender other than "be > gentle"? What do I clean it with? I usually just start by sliding my thumb and forefinger up and down the wires gently. Sometimes I can feel a bit of corrosion that can be rubbed off. I have also gotten carried away and stretched the wires before I even realized it, so that's why I'm warning you to be careful. I realize that this is all very subjective, so you're really on your own, except that I can probably fix the wire if you damage it. > >If you have dealer installed AC the underdash unit > >for that runs from side to side clear across the > >underside of the dash.
