Does any one know what colour the moister sensor is in the ilheadphone jack ?


my iPod barley got wet and I would like to know because it won't turn on

It should be RED IF IT GOT WET
it should be WHITE IF IT DID NOT GET WET.

I'll add that as your touch gets older, even the humidity in the air will start to change that strip to red. I suggest some silver paint on a long slender modeler's paint brush if your strip is red but the Touch has never gotten wet.

Mine is half red ad half white would I be able to get replaced still?

No you won't be able to get it replaced because only half turns red when it gets wet.

Well that sucks would it cost more to get it fixed or is it just better to get a brand new one

These are the replacement costs. You will need to go to the Apple Store and pay thae replacement price. It is cheaper to go this route, but only the iPod will be replaced. You could also buy a new one.

here is the link I got the info from, http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/

Apple hopes you'll simply buy a new one.

If you can bare waiting a few months, the third gen iPod Touch should be coming out soon.. I'm going to sell my first gen soon and wait for the new iPod Touch.
