Hi!

I'm currently fixing an iPhone but I can't really figure out the problem.
It's an iPhone 4s and the screen is not working, it have been waterdamaged. The phone itself is working but the screen is black and yes, I've cleaned it with Isopropyl 99% alcohol.

There is just one thing I'm not really sure about, this:

One of the display connector-pins have been oxiated(That's what happens when components get in touch with water. I don't really know the word, but i hope you understand).

Somebody got a clue? Is the pin the problem or is it maybe that the LCD screen is waterdamaged?

Greetings, Crizz

If the pin(s) on the connector are corroded, that could be your problem. Water damage can be a hard one to track down. There could be multiple issues keeping the screen from working correctly.
