2 questions (2007 civic dx-g)
1. i got myself dialectric grease and was wondering if i had to unplug the battery to grease some connectors, or i just put grease on all the connectors i see.
2. my ac blows hot so im trying to look at the fans to see if they turn and other diagnostics. How long does it take for the fans to start spinning after turning the ac full blast and being idle. I tried it between 5 to 10 mins and nothing happened, or it takes longer than that.
thx.

I figured since I live in Canada and the car is always outside 4 seasons, that if I put such a grease on my connectors it would make them not corrode or last longer.

O2 sensors can be ruined by greasing the wiring with silicone.
Plus, the grease attracts and collects DIRT and generally makes a mess LOL

Ah ok I didn't know that. I figured maybe humidity would pass through. Because it's just plastic.
What would be a good use for it then. Battery terminals and spark plug

Re: 2 questions
The stuff I use at work is dielectric silicone and the tube also calls it tune up grease or something like that, I guess I just refer to it as silicone grease though.
I don't think it's exactly the same as, say, Sil-glide and the like, but I don't have any of that to look at.
Dielectric is an insulator too.
