The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

So what’s the best thing to protect the cable lugs to the winch solenoid and winch motor from corrosion? Both end on my hi mount were pretty bad. All cleaned up now though.
I was thinking to use dielectric grease. Went to Jaycar yesterday and they didn’t know what it was. Lol.
I use to use this stuff all the time in my nerdy sub zero Vapo chilling computer days to stop condensation killing the computer.

I use a combo of the following Mark.
Lanotec and Inox MX3. Swear by it.
Not just elecy stuff that's weather prone , but everything in general. I've thrown CRC and wd40 in the bin years ago when I discovered this.

Then there’s the windscreen leak issue. Do it just silicone up the outer rubber and ignore that there is probably a rust issue? Or. Remove the windscreen and take the time to properly repair it? Which will take much longer to do.

Hey Mark had a read through your journey the trol has taken, well done mate! Did you sort the buzzing relay out? I had one do the same recently and it was as simple as cleaning the neg terminal earths to the body and engine. Your winch wires can be sealed after cleaning and re connecting wire liquid electrical tape like they do with marine wiring. There’s probably other products on the market but boat electronics in salt water corrodes fast so look at what they use to help with that situation.
