I dropped my iphone in water for not even 3 seconds. The diagnosis was that the battery was not keeping charge and the display had broken due to contact with water.
I bought an extra battery and extra display from iFixit, replaced these parts and it is now working. The battery is working just fine but the display keeps on blinking.
Any thoughts on how to fix it?
Tks in advance.
Pedro
Is this a good question?

Hi Pedro, I would say you did everything correctly however you may need to clean all the copper contacts with 91% isopropyl alcohol or higher to get any residue left from the water damage off the board. I hope this helps and don't be worried the alcohol is completely safe. Use a soft bristle toothbrush to clean it. Have fun! If you need help message me.

Tks Calvin for the quick replyThe screen stopped blinking and it was working just fine until a few hours ago when it shut down completely. The phone is still on but the screen is off completely. Any ideas on why this happened?
