well this is not a "new" problem to me, but the ground (fisheye fitting crimped onto thick wire) on my alternator always seems to have corrosion on it and in return, sometimes all the electronics in my car fail...it happened to me tonight and its getting annoying...


how can i go about fixing this little problem?

 

dielectric grease

 

and i can get that at an auto parts store right?


and is it supposed to clean up all the crap that is on it now?

 

Clean off all corrosion with steel wool or a wire brush, and then apply the grease.
