  • Why is there white, crusty buildup on my MX-5 Miata’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your MX-5 Miata, it's likely corrosion.

  • How do I clean a corroded MX-5 Miata battery terminal? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag.
