iPhone Dead After Water Damage – Which Part to Check First?
iPhone dead after water damage:
Best Apple iPhone service center in Mumbai
Has your iPhone gone completely dead after falling into water or getting wet? Don’t panic. In most cases, it’s not the end of the device – but timing and diagnosis are key. The first thing to know is which internal component might be damaged and how to address it quickly.
🔍 Why iPhones Die After Water Damage
Water can short-circuit internal parts of your iPhone. Even a splash, drop in water, or moisture from rain can seep inside and disrupt the motherboard, battery connection, or other sensitive chip-level components.
The biggest issue is corrosion and short-circuiting, which usually begins immediately upon contact with water.
🧠 Which Part to Check First?
The first component to inspect is the PMIC (Power Management IC). PMIC is responsible for distributing power to all sections of the iPhone – screen, motherboard, battery, etc.
⚠️ If PMIC fails, your iPhone won’t show any signs of life – no charging, no screen light, and no vibration.
🔧 Symptoms of PMIC Damage After Water Exposure:
- iPhone doesn’t power on or charge
- No response even after replacing battery or charging port
- Dead screen with no signs of activity
- iPhone heats up slightly when connected to a charger
