Location: North Carolina		Can't tell you without pictures.  Generally, corroded wires can be replaced or cleaned.  Done it many times.

Location: western PA		Corroded wires can interrupt the proper operation of many types of electrical devices. Fortunately in many cases, the fix can be made with the cleaning of the wiring or terminals, without having to replace the affected electrical unit. After the junctions are cleaned and reassembled, adding a dielectric grease to the terminals will greatly reduce the problem from reoccurring.
