Much improved. If you clean the tuner, resist the temptation to hose the whole thing down with spray cleaner. My favorite method is to dip Q-tips into liquid DeOxit (just spray some in a little cup) and then rub the contacts, working the tuner back and forth once something is wetted.
You probably can't reach everything with Q-tips, and may have to spray some, but you get the idea: Less is more. If it's a wafer type tuner, I'd avoid soaking the phenolic wafers more than necessary. Dab up any excess with paper towel or a soft cloth, and allow ample time for it to dry out (maybe even overnight) before powering up again.
Don't use anything abrasive. If contacts are plated with precious metal, you don't want to scrub that off.
