Graphite powder is the general solution, unless you was to pull out your baileys channels on all windows and clean them manually.

It's possibly that the plugs underneath and at the rear of the ICC are loose. This shouldn't be the case unless it's been previously removed, but it'd be the first thing I'd check. See the instructions for mixer shaft replacement in the tech portal for instructions on how to get to those plugs.

I prefer to use silicon spray in the window channels as it doesn't dry up like wd40 and isn't as messy as graphite powder

Similar issue I had with Premium ICC on my G220. It would randomly turn / off. There was two options either replace or repair. Repair was 50:50 chance. I had mine repaired, so far so good.

Have a look on eBay to get and idea of prices of secondhand ones. You could also ring wrecker to see what price is, they may recommend someone who can fix cheap.

Lucky there were many BA's made so there should be plenty of secondhand ones.

No, I used to remove them all the time.

Just unplug the battery for a few minutes and then do your work with the ICC. If you read those instructions I mentioned in my first post, you'll see that technically there is an order to it, but I'm not sure how relevant that is now.

Personally I've not had trouble this way.
