iPod Touch got wet, won't turn on
My iPod Touch was exposed to a little water spray. It was dried quickly and continued to work. The next day it went dead and it won't start.
Is dit een goede vraag?

well you voided your warranty, because they have a substance hidden in the headphone jack connector that will turn red when exposed to water.. try a reset. press the power and home button at the same time for maybe 10 secs till the apple comes up (hopefully)

Thanks Michel, I tried to reset it every way possible-no luck. Is it servicable, should it go to Apple or will I do better somewhere else?

first of all - forget the idea of bringing it to apple - they don't care.
there is something you could do:
disassemble it using the logicboard guide for your model
you will find some white/greenish residue on the logicboard
get isopropyl alcohol (>90%) and clean those parts carefully with a soft paintbrush - the residue is conductive and shortens the parts - thats why the iPod won't work.
let it dry after you're done and then reassemble it, if it's not powering on, try to charge it
