Can't turn on Gopro on battery after water damage. Works on USB.

Hi everyone,

A few months earlier, I got my Gopro immerged into pool water. I didn't see it immediately, but around 2 weeks later, when I tried to turn it on, I couldn't : no reaction from the camera, the screen kept off and I had no LED indicator.

However, the camera works finely when alimented by USB cable... The problem is not coming from my batterieS : I tested 3 different ones.

I'm suspecting a disease somewhere on the motherboard between the battery connector and one of the component because as I said, the camera has no problem on USB. How can I repair it to make it work again on battery ?

Thanks for the good work you're providing on this website.

The expansion board might has some effect on the battery's charging and the usage of the battery.

Remove this part and see if the battery works fine. If so, replace.
