need help identify a capacitor Apple Watch s6 44mm

Hi,

i had a problem with my Apple Watch s6 44mm, two screws loosened the back plate and let in sea water...

when I opened it I washed it all down with isopropyl alcohol but during this operation I think I blew away a capacitor or had already blown away.

the capacitor in question was in the green circle of this photo.

after all this, can you tell me what capacitor would these two be?

thanks a lot!!

Couple things here. You said you loosened screws on your Apple watch? As far as I know, Apple watches generally do not have external screws. They are held shut totally with adhesive. I also can't find any images that feature this spot in the Apple watch, so it might be helpful to have a zoomed out picture, so we know where to look.

Over all this one might be tricky. We'll need someone with a known good Apple watch to measure. Depending on what the component(s) are, this may not affect function. But something tells me it is, or you might not have noticed. I will help to know what exactly was going on in the first place that prompted you to open it up.

thanks so much for the quick response, the fact was that the screws evidently unscrewed on their own with vibrations and over time... I didn't unscrew anything.

I'll take a new photo from further away.

Thanks again for now.
