Q: I have an asus tf101 transformer series laptop and it charges and makes noise as if it's on but my screen is pitch black, could it be water damage that's just the issue since if i click buttons i can hear the computer working just can't see anything

It's hard to know for sure without testing it, but your description helps. If the TF101 charges, makes noise, and responds to button presses while the screen stays completely black, the tablet is probably running and only the picture is missing. That usually comes down to one of three things: the LCD panel, the backlight or the display cable, or the part of the board that drives the screen. Water can cause any of those through corrosion, but so can age or a loose cable. Try shining a flashlight at the screen up close. If you can faintly see icons, the backlight is the likely problem. The TF101 water damage service on this page is currently $59.99. We open it up, clean any corrosion, and test it to find what's actually wrong. If it needs a part, like a screen, we'll confirm that with you before doing more work. If you can, remove it from the keyboard dock and ship only the tablet, unless the dock also got wet. Order on this page and we'll email you a prepaid shipping label.
