iPhone 6s not powering on after water rescue
Hey All,
So I goofed a few weeks ago and laundered my iPhone 6s. I took it apart, rinsed everything with 18M-ohm water and dried everything with acetone (I work in a chemistry lab, it has it's perks). Right afterwards I was able to reconnect everything and it turned on! The screen had some water under it, so I placed it in a dessicator over the weekend to pull it out.
Now it won't turn on. It doesn't seem like any of the display or internal contacts have been damaged or corroded. I can't really see if the charging contacts have been affected, but since it worked previously I'd have a hard time believing they've corroded since then. Does anyone else have any ideas? I've tried multiple chargers, cables, and disconnecting/reconnecting the cables.
Hoping to revive my phone with some help!
Is this a good question?

A small spray bottle of it, yea. I rinsed again with water afterwards. Any rubber bit got a little funky, but no real damage it seems. It did turn on afterwards
