  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my 244’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 244 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 244 vehicle battery? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag.
