(via How to Fix Corroded Battery Compartments)

1. Remove the old battery

You’re wearing your protective gear, right? Okay, then go ahead and remove the old battery with a screwdriver and dispose of it.

2. Neutralize the residual potassium hydroxide

You’ll need a little vinegar or lemon juice to neutralize that residual potassium hydroxide. Here’s how:

1. First thing to do is to add the vinegar to a small container like a bottle cap lid.

2. Next, add a little to each terminal with a small paint brush or something similar.

3. Wipe off any excess from the terminals and leave to dry.

3. Clean it out

If you can easily remove the terminal without needing to also remove any wires, that will make things easier. Using a small file, sandpaper or an emery board, file away at the terminal to remove any corrosion—or as much as possible. Then, wipe it down with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. If you are looking to be extra thorough, Instructables suggests that you may want to add some non-oxidizing grease to help stop any further oxidization.

Put the terminal back into place, and add a battery to test it out.

Moving forward

Now you’ve probably learned your lesson about storing electronics with batteries in them, but minor leaks and corrosion can still happen on items we use every day. To stack the odds in your favor, Instructables instructs us not to mix different battery types in the same device and to replace all the batteries at the same time.
