I took out my microphone after quite a while of not using it... it had been left on with the battery inside, and the battery had corroded. Now it doesn't seem to be working. Is there a way to clean the contacts so that it can work again, or do I have a (very nice) ruined microphone?
My experience with repairing Sony microphones for a television station is that once the battery corrosion eats the copper anywhere within the mic, the circuit (not the mic) is toast. I would send it in to Sony direct as they will have the parts and expertise to turn this around quickly for you.
