Title: DS Problems (Please Respond Fast)
Post by: Thorax on December 18, 2007, 03:14:35 PM
My sister got a DS lite 2 days ago. All was fine and well on till twenty minutes ago, when she dropped it in the sink full of water. It was totally submereged and there was stuff in the water, so it wasn't just water. I took a blow-drier and dried most of it out. Then I took of the battery cover and dried the battery and inside the battery thing. I tried turning it on after I finished (3 minutes ago) and the power light came on. The only other thing that happend is the screen flashed white and went dead. I tried again, and again I got the same results. My sis and I are leaving on a trip tomorrow, and she wants to play it in the car. Fast help would be appretated.

Yes, both screens flash. And by rewet, do you mean re-submerge it or just wipe it down?

EDIT: Just making sure, should I rewet it with just water, or should I put anything in it.

There is a problem with that, I don't have the screwdrivers to do that. And I don't have the time either. I'm trying to figure this out before tomorrow morning.

I don't know, that's why I'm asking for help. I don't have a triwing because I'm more of a PSP modder.

there is nothing you can do, you could maybe drill away those 4 screws, but, thats not very smart

I've had it sitting on an air heater, trying to get all the water out. Are you sure there is nothing more I could do without taking it apart?
