LIQUID DAMAGED UNITS DISCLAIMER !!!
 
There is NO WARRANTY on liquid damage repairs due to the nature of the repair.
 
The price quoted will depend on whether there is physical damage to the Sat Nav, as with some cases of liquid damage, parts need to be replaced like LCD, Speaker, and Mic.
 
There is a minimum cost of £9.95 is for diagnostics and to cover engineers time trying to repair each liquid damaged unit. The minimum charge is only applicable if you refuse the quote or if your device is deemed beyond economical repair.
We will only charge you the initial quote price if the phone is fully working when it leaves the Repair Centre but there is no warranty on liquid damaged phones.
 
 
Some liquid damaged units appear to be working; this is due to corrosion within the Micro Chips (ICs) shorting together allowing an electrical current to run. This allows the unit to switch on, however it can sometimes be a short circuit, and when the engineer clean and flushes the phone it removes the short circuit, and may result in the unit no longer powering up.
 
It is one of the most common problems that can occur when repairing water damaged units. Sometimes just attempting to repair the unit CAN TERMINATE IT, this is due to internal corrosion and not a procedural fault. Manufacturers Company’s WILL NOT touch a liquid damaged phone because of the failure rates in repair.
