Hi Bill, The ISO contacts don't often rust or corrode as all contact surfaces are gold plated and it would take quite a lot of work for them to wear to the base metal to allow corrosion to start. However dust can accumulate on the surface of the board and become wedged under the contact fingers creating intermittent contact. Problems may start when setting the dial to ISO not normally used where dust has settled. Working the dial can displace debris causing problems.
