It might still be alright. Remove the battery, and put the leapster unit into a ziploc baggie along with some silica gel packs (those little packets that come with shoes and such that say "Do Not Eat") Leave it for a few days until the unit is fully dry inside. Then put the battery back in and give it a shot. We did this with a cordless phone that fell in the sink and it was fine!

Leapfrog leapster unit was left outside during a rain storm. Unit turns on but has no display on the screen. Is it fixable?
Try letting it dry...maybe the sun if it is out. If not, just leave it in your house for a while. Even if it may seem dry on the outside and nothing is "leaking", there could be some moisture left in there. If that doesn't work, then your unit may be completely fried.
Hope that helps ^_^

The touch screen no longer works on my grandsons' 5-month old leapster. Does the warranty cover that?
Likely, yes. call leapfrog, and ask. However, most warranties do not cover abuse or accidents. If your grandson did something or dropped it, the warranty will not cover that.

How do I get the batter cover off a Leapster?!?!?!?!?
OK, after nearly breaking my daughter's leapster I have figured it out.

Use the coin and twist the little screw up. Then with the screw part closest to your chest, SLIDE the cover off AWAY from your chest. The batteries are located on the undercarriage of the cover. It takes "4" AA's

Hope this helps everyone!!!
