Spilled bottle water on my macbook air.
No hard damage, it seemed. But the internal speakers don't work.Recommendation
- Do not keep water bottles and pc in the same bag
- Do not TURN on YOUR COMPUTER before driyng the water.Dry well, maybe with a hairdryer (in distance and ambient air), put the computer in a ventilated place and wait a few hours.
- Use keyboard protective films and neoprene covers. Neoprene is not waterproof but prevent the direct water contact
If your computer is on standby:
- Dry the pc from drops of water.
- Check that there were no damages related to hardware fault (just like warnings or system alerts)
- Turn on pc.
- Check your system functions. Keys, screen video audio (jack and internal speakers).
What happened to me:
- The internal speakers did not work. Reason? Perhaps a few drops of water inside of the jack prevented the system to tell if earphones jack were inserted or not.
- I cleaned with a cotton-bud the jack.
- I opened video editing and conversion programs to increase the processor temperature and activate the cooling fans, hoping that this could dry the residual drops.
- Rebooted, audio was ok.
Good luck.
These liquid spill will make Macbook keyboard difficult to use press again sticky or stuck
