Yes there is and I would wire brush or take some sand paper to the battery ground wire. You may have to get your volt meter out and measure your voltages if the clean up and fuses check out o.k. Sometimes there are fusible links within the wiring itself that have issues. If so have a look there too. Simple continuity test for that. Good Luck!
