I agree, it is still good to put on connections, keeps out all water and eliminates moisture from corroding contact points

I am going to pull them now while it's "easy" and have them gone through. I do think it's unlikely that both have the same problem a couple months apart but I'm not willing to take the chance. This problem will probably lead back to my wiring which I will also be double checking. Thanks for the heads up about the solenoids. I'll ask about them when I drop them off.

I'm hoping everything checks out, retracing wiring is never a fun time
