This is day 3. No zip.
It is a good sign. The passenger side batterys negative post was corroded the worst. I treated the posts earlier this year. After cleaning again i re-treated them. I cannot remember the name of the chemical.

I consider this issue resolved. Thanks for all the input.

I got the chemical out to see the name again.
I used Fluid Film both times to treat the posts.

Isn't it great when you can come here with a problem and get the advice of a lot of different people. You can usually find someone that has had the same issue and get everything taken care of quickly.

I think you fixed it for now.
But the corrosion is caused by leaking battery posts and you really need to replace the batteries or the problem will be right back.
