  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my C2500’s battery post? A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your C2500 car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my C2500 vehicle battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your C2500’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables.
