What is the white, crusty substance accumulating on my ML550’s battery post?

The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your ML550’s battery terminals is known as corrosion.

Corrosion can affect the flow of electricity between your battery and the electrical system in your ML550, possibly causing issues with electrical performance and starting. If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.

How do I clean a corroded ML550 battery terminal?

Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your ML550’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables. Once the cables have been disconnected, gently clean the terminals with a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag.
