Hi
Is it safe to put ribbon cables in a ultra sonic cleaner as I have seen what they do to tin foil
And also any recommendations on what pcb cleaner Solution I should get(it has to be one you can buy in the uk)
Thanks
Is dit een goede vraag?

Don’t put ribbon cables in an ultrasonic cleaner. Fluid can creep into the cable.
The bad thing about an ultrasonic cleaner is that after you use it you have to clean it. One idea to avoid this is to put cleaning solution in an empty, cleaned out, plastic peanut butter or Nutella jar. Put the parts to be cleaned in the solution in the jar. Put the jar in the ultrasonic cleaner. Fill the ultrasonic cleaner with water.

Thanks for the reply
I was wondering that because my MacBook Pro has a corroded cable connector and I was looking for a way to fix it
Thanks

Why are you going to such extreme?

The reason why I I am going to such a extreme is because I have a water damaged connector on my MacBook logic board that I am working on and at first I thought the pins were burned but they were just badly corroded on both the connector and the flex cable and I thought the ultra sonic cleaner may be the least harmful way of cleaning the cable at such a small level but if that isnt really a option I will probably have to tin them and hope for the best.
