Probably a bad battery. Replace it.

Re: Re: Battery contacts corroded

Battery Terminal corrosion, all Corrosion b/t two dissimilar metals, is actually caused by four things. take away one and corrosion cannot form.

Anodic Metal
Cathodic Metal
Electron Flow
Water

Of course you cant remove the anodic or cathodic metal because thats your battery terminal post and the terminal clamp.
Nor the electron flow because w/o that you wouldnt start your truck.

Clean it off with some battery terminal cleaner from the auto parts store, NOT COKE! then coat it with Fitting grease. That will separate the moisture from the terminals and you shouldnt have to worry about it.

However if It develops under the grease you may have battery acid seeping up.
