i60c minor water damage, keypad won't work

I dropped my 160c phone in to the toilet Sunday, it was in about 10 secs. I let it dry out, and it actually worked yesterday morning for an hour or 2, and then it started ringing by itself, so I took the battery out.

Now I can't get the keypad to work at all. I have taken the phone apart and it looks normal, no corrosion that I can see. I can't enter my sim code, but it can power up, no problem. I can put in another sim card that doesn't need a code, and call the phone, it receives the call, but cannot press the button to activate the call.

I have read that the techs clean the contacts with a brush and alcohol, I have done this with a pencil eraser. If I scrub lightly with alcohol, what would I brush since it's only the keypad??

Any help would be appreciated, as I am using my old i50sx for the meantime.

Thank you,

Allan

Try this, get sand paper and just pass the sand paper about 5 times lightly do not over do it.

that would work, but I used the tip of a pointed tweezer, and scraped. They were clean anyway. Does anyone know where the connection for the keypad is?

if you dont get the keypad to work and you end up needing a new keypad board let me know i havea few laying around..
