I am putting in a stepper on my 222 Seeburg, is is recommended to put
Dielectric Grease on the tormat and selector plugs that attach to the
stepper, or is this a waste of time. Thanks in advance

I personaly wouldn't unless you're having problems. Clean things well
and see if you need it first. Dielectric grease doesn't help make a
better connection, just lubricates. A little bit goes a long way.

I think it is always a good idea to put the grease on as a preventative
measure. It will reduce the risk of corrosion and improve the metal to
metal contact (lower resistance) although that won't matter much unless
there is a bit of current flowing...

I am very pleased with the results of using Dow Corning #4 Electrical
grease and recommend it for protecting connectors.

Do not put it on moving electrical parts - I do not think it would help
for those, too thick for easy motion. It is not a lubricant as fas as I
know.
