> I'm curious as to whether it is a failure of the spring tension or was it corrosion causing it to overheat? Considering the environment in which it's used a dab of dielectric grease in each of the female holes every now and then should be beneficial.
Based on how the plastic melted, the heat seemed to come from the wire-to-terminal connections. No sign of corrosion or arcing where the female terminals mate with the male connector.
