Yes, the BPC can be cleaned. Sometimes, it works and sometimes it doesn't. I've had to clean mine 4 times in the past 14 years and 180,000 miles (still the original BPC). Other people have had the cleaning only be effective for a month or two. Of course, you have to make sure that your problem is not an open winding. No amount of cleaning will fix that. I seem to remember that the resistance between pins 1 and 2 and pins 1 and 3 should be about 2 Ohms.
In the past I've used electronic contact cleaner to remove the gunk. I have followed that up with a light spritz of teflon spray. There are different opinions as to whether this helps or just adds to the next batch of gunk.
