No nothing wet. but stiil confused about the white stuff on the neg of the battery, is it shorting out or something ?
It is verdigris mate and it is eating away at all metal parts including your terminals...take the battery out and clean it up as previously advised....clean the bottom of the battery box if it has white stuff (take out the drain plugs first)
For the terminals, carefully dip the white powdered ones in the boiling hot solution (steal one of your mums small sauce pans
)
It is good to see bright shiney metal on the terminals, so buy a wire brush Battery Terminal cleaning thinggy from Supercheap ....
then coat the tightened terminals with Si grease or Vas to prevent re-occurrance of white stuff.....
