boosted98gst Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 during the fire my wii ect was packed in a bag, everything was soaked in water by the fire dept, I doubt it even works but who is able to fix or repair these type of things? If anyone can help that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillJoy Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Have you tried to turn it on? KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 set it next to a fan for a couple hours.. turn it on..? better yet, set it on top of a dehumidifier, and put a trashcan over that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fast5gp Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 set it next to a fan for a couple hours.. turn it on..? yeah, if you can get all the water out i mean every single drop it should turn on again. You might have to clean the laser/lense though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 All electronics get wet during their creation, washing of things like flux, just make sure it is dry and use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 If you have the time open the case clean it out let it dry out for a day or 2 and put it back together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtschulze Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Or claim it on insurance and just buy a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro1647545510 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Or claim it on insurance and just buy a new one. I believe he posted in the other thread that he didn't have insurance. OP: Post up and let us know if it works after drying it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copperhead Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 If you don't have a dehumidifier, sticking it in a fridge for a couple days works too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
