iPod Video + Liquid + Cigarette Lighter = Bad Idea

without comments

So you and your friends are fooling around, and somehow someone manages to spill an “unknown” liquid into your iPod Video. Ok, that’s not a happy thing, but applying heat via a cigarette light to dry it our is not the smartest idea.

In this case you can see how the iPod’s Click Wheel is melted from the heat, and if you look carefully it’s just slightly burnt around the edges.

MacMedics to the rescue! We fixed this unit for $49. New iPod Video Click Wheel and a free iPod Video battery with all iPod Video and iPod Classic repairs.
