It's getting pretty hard to disconnect the 6 pin connector on the toad when I unhitch. I think I need some sort of lube on it, but not sure what kind. Suggestions?

Generally a sicilone spray or lubricant will work fine. Use just enough to provide the lubrication you need.

You can alos us one of the electrical corrioion resistant greases.
