[RESOLVED] Argggh - Diet Coke Leaked On My MP3 Player
I was walking to work and put a half full bottle of diet coke with the lid on in my bag.
When I was in the lift someone said "there's something dripping out of you bag".
I muttered some expletives and the door opened for my floor.
Quickly to my desk to find pretty much 300ml / 10oz of diet coke had leaked in my back.
Instantly I grabbed my Creative MuVo2 and the protective case was saturated
I pulled out the player and took the back off and there was DC in and around the battery.
I dried it off and tried to power on. Nothing
I shook it and diet coke dripped out
It's almost 2 years old so I will take it apart when I get home as it's out of warranty, hopefully just some moisture (DC) causing short circuit or something.
Also my Sharp electronic organiser doesn't work but it's protective puch was hardly wet and the organiser has no visible signs of DC on it. I replaced the CR2032 batteries to no avail.
It's only a 64Kb model and is 10 years old so I don't care too much, but I'll take it apart anyway.
Hopefully my MP3 player can be bought back to life.
