I'm sorry I was thinking corrosion as in "rust" not oxydization, no I've never worked on outboard motors next time I'll read the whole thread. Sorry I should be smacked in the head.

I wouldn't go that far. seriously aluminum will disolve into a white powdery mess if the conditions are right....Water ,steel, aluminum. Add a little salt and the aluminum will leave town.

Well, I changed out the multifunction switch ($90) and they still didn't work. Then I checked the obvious. I have an SUVLights heavy duty headlight harness. Come to find out, the relays in the harness was burned out. So I spent 120 bucks on a 30 dollar fix. Oh well, now I know to order a few of them from SUV or JCWhitney for a whole lot cheaper than the local parts store and keep them on hand. I meant to check that before I bought the switch but was too lazy.
Oh well, at least now I have a shiny new switch. If anyone needs a multifunction switch, I still have my original one.

When I pulled the switch I took it apart and could see the contacts were melted. you can take them apart and put back together with no trouble or check them with a meter. Sorry i didn,t say how I found it in my last post.
