Cleaning and repairing a laptop after flooding with liquid
One of the most common problems that laptop owners come to our service center with is spilling water or other liquid on the laptop. The negative consequences of liquid getting into a laptop can be very serious. Components that can fail after flooding a laptop include the keyboard, motherboard, hard drive, battery, and others. Corrosion and short circuit can lead to loss of data and malfunction of the entire device.
What to do if water or other liquid gets on the laptop
If liquid has got on the laptop, then in this case you need to do the following:
- First of all, you need to de-energize the device. Unplug the cord from the outlet, turn off the power supply and remove the battery, pull out the connected peripherals, turn off the external drive.
- After turning off the laptop, remove the visible liquid with a soft cloth, if the liquid has got on the device from above, turn the laptop upside down and drain the liquid that has got inside.
- If it is not possible to immediately contact the SC or a specialist, leave the laptop upside down with a dry cloth under it for 1-2 hours. Fix the laptop securely so that it does not fall. And in no case do not turn it on again, even if the laptop is dry. Externally, the laptop may be dry, but it is impossible to visually determine the degree and volume of liquid penetration and the consequences of its destructive effect.
- After the above steps, contact the service center as soon as possible. Oxidation processes are continuously taking place in the laptop and corrosion covers more and more areas of conductors, which ultimately leads to their complete burnout. Therefore, you need to remove liquid from the laptop elements immediately.
Do not try to disassemble and dry the laptop yourself. Completely remove the liquid without special equipment will not work. You will only miss precious time and thereby significantly increase the likelihood of costly repairs.
