    I recently got a fault code on my 2001 PT Cruiser that indicated that the
    battery was intermittently losing power. I checked and found the battery
    terminals and connections corroded with "that green stuff". I disconnected
    the terminals and thoroughly cleaned the terminals and connectors and
    reconnected everything. Is there a spray something that I can spray on the
    terminals to prevent this corrosion?

    People say grease works once the corrosion is cleaned off but I like the red
    fabric washers with impregnated chemical that they sell at auto parts stores
    more. Toyota used to put them on their batteries from the factory.

    I use plain old Vaseline. Works fine and is easier to clean off than
    grease.

    And, of course you can get the spray stuff at most any APS.
