I've got a switch that my son spilled some bubble solution on the bottom left side, near the left joycon contacts and on the screen. He cleaned it up and then didn't tell us until two days later he complained about the left joycon not working in handheld mode any longer.
So my conundrum is it's under warranty for another 2 weeks. It has been online in it's life before hacks, but I blocked it in my firewall and then forced it to use my ps4exploit self host proxy, this way i can still access it internally, but it never goes online anymore. I did tons of research and went with the method of booting rcm with a jig, making a full backup, then installing briccmii to make it autorcm, I then used another rajkosto tool choidujour to update to 5.1 as i recall. I've continued to leave it offline. I've checked and my efuse level is intact. If I now restore the backup and reverse briccmii and remove my SDCard, N is none the wiser correct? They may upgrade the firmware and blow my efuses but it looks like it hardly matters at this point, everything seems to work fine on 6.1 anyway.
Has anyone been in a similar situation and successfully had a repair done even though the console had been hacked before sending it in?
I'm looking to try to clean the board myself with >90% isopropyl alcohol, I'm curious about the water damage tag inside too, it doesn't look like N can even tell if I've opened it either. If something is shorted though sending it in might be for the best, as I don't have the right gear to troubleshoot or repair any logic board problems.
