Corrosion can affect the flow of electricity between your battery and the electrical system in your S550, 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 S550 battery terminal?

Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your S550’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables.
