[QUOTE="MDCrappie, post: 513609, member: 160"] You need to clean off the corrosion and then cover the wire with something like liquid electric tape. The corrosion comes from the wire being exposed to moisture while current is flowing thru it. Can likely get an aftermarket switchbox, but not sure just replacing a working switchbox is a good idea. Either of these is probably the correct replacement.
