Yes. Read up on the interwebs and you'll see how to do it. It's not the easiest thing. My iphone 3gs got wet too back in 2012.

Hi, I hope that the problem is with your display......however keep in mind that with water you could have motherboard problems. You could buy this and install and if that's not your problem you only out about 25 bucks.

Well, I'm not sure how much damage the water did. My screen was broken and this worked great. There is a very delicate cable that has a tiny clip that needs to be closed to stay in place.

It sounds like there might be something wrong with your LCD. If this truly is the case, then yes, this would fix your problem. Luckily, the 3GS is not very complicated to change over compared to the iPhone 4, 4s, and higher.

if it was installed correctly, the backlit showed be on. There is a wire that is connected to the power, that should be properly inserted into the small connector on the circuit board.

Yeah I had it happen. Water catches and then light stays on. Try tapping it or letting a little water run off til it clears.

I thought the same thing but i realized there was a blue sticker over the light. Try taking the sticker off and it should work

I had the same problem. I noticed a small drip stain on the LED cover. Cleaned it with a little Windex on a rag. Now works perfectly.

Take a look in the back and see if the lamp is still working. If it's not it's supposedly easily replaceable.Have you had the concave screen problem I've had?

View looks good on mine. I would try a new battery to see if it helps. Using backlight helps as well.

Return the item. I had the same issue with the light I purchased or call Amazon.

The connector supplied is not the lighting however I bought mine a year ago so they may have upgraded or have one. Or there may be a apple 30 pin to lightning adapter. Call apple.

I gave up trying to do it myself and took it into a computer/nintendo shop. They didn't charge me for the glass since I already had it. Ended up being lots cheaper to still have gotten the part myself. I had a friend that fixes iphones a lot, but he said the slim ipod is really easy to mess up trying to change the glass yourself. If you really want to do it yourself I would try and find another video... Sorry!

The kit would only fix a broken screen. Can you still operate your device? Is the background color or overall tone of the image green? It sounds like you are having issues with the video chip or other "in the case" component. Take it to an official Apple repair location...the other advise buy another one : )

Hello,Based on my own experience, this is the problem with the LCD panel. In the case of mine, the digitizer (the touch glass) is cracked but still working, but there is a black strip along the crack on the LCD. After replacing the LCD, everything is working fine now.

Mine was installed yesterday and already with new duracells the "replace" is flashing, and the backlit display never goes off. But I think I must have gotten a faulty unit.

I never got a chance to put mine on. The computer was stolen. I replaced it once before and believe it is the complete deal. I didn't notice a backlight when I removed it. I still have mine but no where to put it.

Too funny. I had the same problem with my iphone5 until actually tonight. It's found by swiping in the upward motion from the main bottom button. A light grey screen comes up with sound, Bluetooth etc...it's under airplay

It was working. I'm not sure why it isn't now. Perhaps it is an iOS 7.1 issue. I assumed something was wrong with my monitor. I'll post an update if it works on another monitor.
