Have you checked the connections in the head and swapped the cells around to be sure it is a cell and not some green gunge in a banana plug or something.

If there were "green Gunge" then hes not doing the necessary maintenance and checks .. The connectors should be checked and cleaned regularly.. It should be part of his normal setup checks.. It takes less than a minute to check the bananna block, harness and sensors...


Although to be honest, most sources of corrosion should effect the negative terminals only.. They will turn black (its a combination of a chemical/electrical reaction) and its easy to spot and clean, plus this is usually so thorough that you will get a sensor reading of 0.00, If you get corrosion on the positive terminals its cause would really only be residue from wet sorb or salt water...
