Mine and Brian's were both like that. I managed to repair mine, but Brian's started to go off in the middle of the night. I got a couple of plugs and a longer length of wire from A8 Parts, so I plan to cut off the old plug and 'scotchlock' the new one on. I really doubt if there's room to fit a new plug and I haven't tried to get the side panel off.

Well that hasn't gone according to plan! Had a go at removing the pins from the old plug - 1 came out fine, but the other 2 snapped
 1 was heavily corroded anyway.I think my best option will be to pop it down to my local indy and get them to put 2 new pins on so I can reassemble the plug. For now I've just wrapped them in insulating tape and left them dangling, with 1 wire fitted in the new plug. I think the pins are crimped rather than soldered, so as long as they don't have to trim anything much off the wiring in situ it ought to be possible to do it with the aid of a helper to take the strain on the wire and stop it disappearing!

Cut the case open on the old module, just to see what state it was in and this is what I found - basically 1 leaking cell has done a fair bit of damage for a relatively small leak. Cell seems to have swelled as well.
