You've gotten some good advice re: the controller cooking. As for the corroded socket, I used to have that problem a lot. The solution I found was a heavy dose of WD-40 into the connector every week or two for a few months and then every month or so thereafter. If you are using the 6-pole connector with the aluminum housing, moisture and road salt will cause a chemical reaction between the aluiminum and the brass terminals. WD-40 or a similar product will coat the metals and prevent electrical currents that cause the corrosion, but will allow the circuits to function as they should.
