See Favorite Fluids for fluid changes on Calcs. DeoxIT (Pro Gold) cleans and lubes the contacts nicely.

HPIL Error: Loop Broken

The 9114 has built-in self tests, one of which tests the HP-IL. All you need to do is short the HP-IL port with a cable and run the diagnostics described in the CE Handbook, Section V, Test 2. It's not a bad thing to run the other tests as well.
