Fitbit BLAZE got submerged for 2 seconds - HELP

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Hi

 

I accidentally submerged my Blaze. It was still working for about 5 minutes and then went black. I placed it in a bowl of rice for 24 hours and then charged it and did a restart.

 

It vibrates and the screen has little coloured dots all over it ......... the green lights at the back flash still. Is there anywhere I can send it to get fixed or do I have to throw it away.

I must admit for an expensive exercise watch that you wear constantly, mistakes happen and it would be quite heartbreaking to have to simply throw it away (:

 

Would not purchase a non water resitant fitness tracker again.

 

Help Please

@SunsetRunner- I would recommend you place the tracker in a ziplock bag with rice, seal it, and leave it for at least 24 hours (longer is better). The rice will pull the moisture out of the tracker, and may fully restore its functionality.

Thanks Larry. I actually did this probably closer to 48 hours and no good yet.
