Reddit mentions of DeoxIT D-Series Pen, 100% Solution, 6 mL

If anything, remove the CMOS Battery and the housing for the GPU and you can wash the boards with water. Immediately pat it dry and place in a 200*F 90*C degree oven or an oven set on Warm (WM) to help it dry quickly. (the GPU PCB and the Motherboard can be there and be safe.) Any higher and you're going to risk melting connectors. To be extra safe, wrap in some paper towels and set on the racks after the oven gets to temp. Turn off the oven and then let them sit there for about an hour or two.

From there you can use a corrosion removal spray or solution to try and undo any damage.

CRC contact cleaner - Plastic Safe.

Deoxit contact cleaner and corrosion removal.

Pen style Deoxit.

If not, you can no confidently say that you need to spend the money on the now more expensive GPU and Motherboard. Clean the contacts of the ram as well as the power supply connectors with rubbing alcohol just incase.



Edit: Reddit had a stroke when I used autocorrect and doubled a bunch of shit.

Most common issue is the contacts in the tonearm are corroded.

Licking your headshell contacts will be a quick fix but will lead to more corrosion.

Grab one of these: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B001EQ7H82/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/176-2386323-9621025

And thoroughly coat the inside of the tonearm and it may help. If your contacts are too far gone, you may need a new tonearm.

If the same headshell works on a different turntable, then it's the tonearm. If it doesn't work, then It could be the headshell. Swap out the carts with the one that works and if it doesn't, it's the headshell, if it does, it could be the cartridge.
