Advice needed on repair of Nokia 6300 water damage - GSM-Forum

EamonX1 · 09-20-2009, 19:45

Have Nokia 6300. Some water fell on it and it heated up. I removed the battery and dried it out as best I could. However, when I reinserted the battery the two blue lights on side came on and remain on. The screen occasionally lights up and I get a message about inserting sim card, but I get no further.

Am situated in Africa, away from repair centres. Is there any hope for my Nokia? I am good at fixing things and have manged to dismantle the phone with help from internet. What part is likely to be gone? and can it be replaced?
