How do you fix a Sony digital camera that got soaked in Gatorade?


So, I did the smartest thing ever and put a Gatorade bottle in my purse. I thought I had tighten the cap, but I guess not since there was about 2 inches of Gatorade in my bag! My brand new camera was in it. It was submerged probably 2-3 minutes. When I try to turn it on, the LCD screen just shows nothing but white. I took the battery and memory card out of it and wiped it off. Should I take the whole camera apart? or should I just have to wait?

First of all you should have not turned it on after you too it out of the Gatorade. wipe it of with a damp paper towel so it is not sticky, that wait for it to dry if it looks dry it might not be dry from the inside so wait for a day or two and put it next to your ac so it will be comply dry. then put the clean dryad batteries it. it should work. i got mine in water and after i did that it still worked but it was slower for a couple of days but after wards it was as good as new. if it doesn't work try to find the warranty if you still have it.

"How do you fix a Sony digital camera that got soaked in Gatorage?" Well, you don't.
The first thing to do is take out the battery 'n card, and open up all doors, and let the camera sit, and dry. This may take a day, or even more. If it doesn't start to work in less than a week, then it's a gonner.
I used my camera under a waterfall once, and it broke down on me. Well, it was added that my hands were wet.
As I mentioned, if it doesn't work within a week, then it's no longer worth repairing. The repair cost would justify purchasing a new camera. Best of luck, hope it works.

taking it apart is risky
try to dry it out with a fan or hair dryer
you will probably have to have it fixed

take it in to the shop, i dont know about gatorade, but mine got fixed from water just in a few days
they know what theyre doing
