Red indicator over battery iPhone7

Hi guys!

I just bought a defect iphone 7 to inspect and repair (first timer). I've open the phone and I see this "RED indicator" which I guess (know) is some type of water damage. My question is.

Can I fix it? What should I look for?

Thanks!

So, about 2 years in the future.

If you have the same problem as this thread holds.

I bought a new logicboard - replaced it and the phone worked perfectly. Till I smashed the screen and had to repair it once again.
