walt, the very first thing I would do, is to clean the complete phone, disassembled of course, with high grade isopropyl alcohol. Use this guide to work on your phone, and check on here about general cleaning. This great guide shows how to clean an iPhone, but all the points are still pertinent to your phone as well. Replace the battery after cleaning and see what you get. Hope this helps, good luck

First of all, I would recommend you to disassemble the entire phone and one by one use a heat gun to apply warm heat for each part so that any damaged parts would dissolve any part of liquid left. It will reform the parts back to its original state within matter of minutes after heat is applied.

@ stella, No reason why it shouldn't. I definitely suggest for you to start with that. If nothing else, it will provide you with a known good starting point.
