Tunze 6100 connections

[artful13dodger]

Greetings,

On both my Tunze 6100's the connections are very skittish. I have to toy with them painstakingly to get them to run, and then set the driver down just so in order to keep it running.

I'm still very new at this (check the post count...), though the equipment has been in use for perhaps a few years. Anyway, I'm wondering if these have seen their last (really hope not, just dropped a bundle on the tank and need a month buffer to refill the coffers...).

Or, can I (a very layman) disassemble and clean, or strip back the wires a little and redo the connection endings, or do anything else to keep these going without have to constantly check if they're actually running.

If you're giving me the bad news (they're gone), any recommendations on replacement powerheads for a 120G SPS / 37G sump setup? It's very bare currently, just started, no fish yet, but will be SPS dominated reef tank. Also, there is a third, much weaker powerhead running at all times, if that factors in.

Thanks all.
