Dendritic Corrosion is one of my favorite phrases.

But seriously mega/microsquirt is meant to be run in harsh environments right? How the hell is that board not at least conformilly coated? If I was making a rough-service piece of electronics I'd pot the whole drat thing, especially on a bike where water intrusion is inevitable.

Sidenote: that's exactly what I did to my old Suzuki's starter relay when I found out the PO hacked the weatherproof connector off and put on spade connectors.
