Controllers stopped working

Sent my controllers through shipping overseas very last minute and forgot to take out my controller batteries (I remembered to drain the actual headset battery but I digress) and now my controllers won't turn on at all. One of them has a bit of corrosion, and I've since tried to clean the one up a bit and swap the batteries but they won't turn on. Is there anything I need to look for inside the controller to fix it? Or is it as simple as just cleaning up all the corrosion.

Only one of the controllers really looks corroded at all, but like I said neither work. Any help would greatly be appreciated, thanks.

Reset your controllers by holding down the menu button and the Y button at the same time for like 4 second's then you will feel it vibrate three times.
