Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:Time to clean the three playfield wire harnesses. I wish I had some type of tub large enough to clean these in, but I don't, so they get done outside on the driveway. I'll clean each one individually. Lay on driveway, spray with hose, spray with Bleche Wite, scrub with paint brush, flip the whole thing over and repeat. I'll spend a good 10 minutes on each one making sure to clean every part and every inch.
Guessing this pro-cleaning technique for the harness should only be attempted by a hobbyist if they're willing to replace all the microswitches like you do (otherwise the microswitches should be removed first because of internal seepage/moisture retention from the hose)?
Great stuff Bryan; thanks for this amazing how-to!
Here's a smaller version--I've removed mine off the base and it comes in quite handy for soldering, etc:
