Default nss?

so i was having nss starting probelms awhile back and took my nss apart and cleaned it up and put it back on and it worked great had reverse lights and everything. but now a few months later it started happening again and i thought the nss what out of alignment after taking it apart it realized that the copper contacts had turning green with corrosion. i cleaned it up again yesterday and now today its acting up again

why are the copper contacts corroding

Did you take the veins out of the wiper arm and clean all the gunk out of there? The you need to add di-electric in the slots, as well as the wiper path...
