No grease there at all. I've cleaned the contacts in the past with electrical cleaner but as Septikangel says, corrosion due to water ingress is not a problem for me. The wettest my bike gets is being washed every couple of months :lol
There has been a certain amount of chlorine dust residual in the garage over the years due to me storing and handling pool chemicals there and this might have been a contributory factor. However, I think it's mostly age that's to blame, hence the suggestion that others might want to look at these connectors during routine maintenance.
I'm not an electrical testing wizard so I think visual inspection will be the most reliable way for me to check that all's well when I do the repairs. Quality connector already to go, too.
