iPhone took a swim then tried to be turned on

Hello, recently i bought an iPhone SE and, well, i forgot it in my shorts and it went through the wash. It was in an otter box, but not a waterproof case. The ports were closed but not watertight i think but there was a whole for the back and front facing camera. However, after taking it out of the wash, one of my friend tried turning it on. It of course didn't, but did this cause a short circuit? I have the tools to take apart the iPhone and can replace a part in it by myself, but I don't know if it is still fixable if it is fried. Can anyone please tell me if the turning on the phone affected it and if it is still possible to dry it off, replace a part or two, and have it running. Thanks.

@helpmeplsss anything is possible. Remember that water damaged phones are very tricky to repair and things seem to always happen with them after. Keep in mind that water damage is the hardest to troubleshoot and to repair. As with any other liquid immersed device you need to follow a few steps for proper trouble shooting.

stop trying to charge, sync or otherwise use your phone. This potentially can make a bad situation worse.

The very first step I would take is to disassemble your phone. Use these guides iPhone SE (1st Generation) to help you disassemble your phone. Take a careful and close look at all components and connectors. Truly assess the damage. Look for major corrosion, evaluate the pins in the connectors etc,. Take a look at all connectors as well as cable ends. You will have to remove all the EMI shields. If you do not remove the shields, you are not cleaning the board. Once you got the gross contamination cleaned, use 90%+ isopropyl alcohol and clean your parts some more. For a proper cleaning, use this guide. It was written for an Apple iPhone 3G but it is still pertinent to your phone as well. I can not stress the importance of a good cleaning enough, so do it over and over while replacing the alcohol after each cleaning. Do not use compressed air for the cleaning since that can drive liquid as well as corrosion particles into areas that will cause trouble later on. You do not need to leave it to dry for a day. Isopropyl alcohol in the higher concentration will evaporate quickly and dissipate the water. The importance here is the cleaning. It would of course be best to get it professionally cleaned Do not forget to replace the battery. This is a must and not an option. It will fail if you do not take care of it now. After that, reassemble your phone and re-evaluate. For as long as you have not cleaned your board and replaced the battery, everything is just a guess. The longer you wait the less likely your chances to revive this phone.

If you are unsure of all of this you need to contact people like @refectio who do this kind of work for a living and are the experts.

Thank you, but do you or anyone else know where I can get a hold of a battery for an SE and a logic board. Does iFixit sell a logic board? If so, could you please attach a link to it. Thanks.
