    My car stopped dead. Many error etc. on dash. Took to Dealership. Found rodent poop and pee on Buss bar and chewed wire. Price for Fix - $20k. So I assumed they were not interested in a repair?

    Watched all the WeberAuto videos and removed the batter cover. Yes Stack 5 looks dirty and chewed.
    Safety circuit plug removed, and 12 v system disconnected.

    So how can I clean and repair in place the terminales etc. Anyone have experience?

    They probably didn’t want to open a can of worms, it’s impossible to know how much damage there is and you can only repair one thing at a time.
    Idk if it can be cleaned in place, but there are plenty of threads and videos on cleaning up the inside of the battery.
    That’s an interesting code, I can’t find anything on google

    That should be covered by your Comprehensive (damage other than collision) Car Insurance. I don't know the value of your car but I'd call my insurance agent and see what he/she says.
