The prongs are all corroded andhard to mate with the longer cord. Appreciate any help you can supply. thx

The first thing I recommend is to clean the prongs on the plugs you mentioned are corroded. You can use light grit sandpapaer to get them clean and then use the dielectric grease, part # 11755.

This will help prevent future corrosion and also helps keep dirt out of the connections.
