• Helps maintain tight, low-resistance connections
• Common failure signs: melted/discolored plastic, burned or loose terminals, arcing, scorching, or intermittent/no power after confirming the cord and breaker

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; verify no voltage before servicing
• Photograph or label wire positions to ensure correct reassembly
• Inspect and replace any heat-damaged wire ends or lugs; use appropriate terminals
• Tighten connections securely and ensure wires are fully seated and strain-relieved as originally installed
