SOLVED: Liquid damage both screens are black. - Nintendo 3DS XL

Liquid damage both screens are black.

I dropped my Nintendo 3ds xl in a foot bath a while back and when it’s turned on the screens will not turn on. It charges and it powers on, I can hear the sound just fine, but i’m Very worried. Nobody will help me fix it and every time I have somebody else look at it they say they can’t help me. That my best bet is to buy a new one, it was a gift from my father and I don’t want to get rid of it. Please help.
