What must I do when my blackberry Z10 dropped inside the sink?

I was washing my hands in the washing room. I left my phone on the table next to the sink. All of a sudden my phone ringed. I answered it and it feel in the sink. Not even one second . I picked it up , dried it. Left it switch off for 10 minutes . Then I tried to charge it but it wouldn't switch on anymore. I tried to open the back of my phone and take off the battery. But it looks like it needed a special tools to open it. I didn't want to damage it further. What should i do know? Help

Hi

Well i know its to late but for the future : never ever try to boot or charge a wet phone. it will give short circuit to main board and battery. and other parts.

Open the phone following this good guide : BlackBerry Z10 Teardown

when you see the mainboard check for oxidised parts. clean the whole main board and parts and connectors with isopropyl alcohol. repeat this a couple of times. you will see the oxidation will go away.

Sometime you will have to use a soft tootbrush to clean ( but be very carefull doing this)

between the cleaning let it dry. afterwards when it is fully dry , place a new battery in the phone and try to boot.

I hope it will work ( i did it a couple of times , sometimes it works , sometimes the oxidation killed to many parts..) i recommend to buy a new battery

Kind regards,

kevin

in this link they show you how to open and get to the mainboard. normaly you will find other screw once inside, to get to the battery.
