No guarantee for defect left audio, bcs of waterdamage made long ago

Question

Hello everyone,
the left side of my headphones doesn't work well.
It works fine if you turn and switch a bit and then lay it down if it works. But you have to leave it almost untouched, which is quite difficult if your riding a bike or walking.
Now is the problem that Apple refuses guarantee. Why?
Well, in the end of July this year, I was stupid and spoiled some water on my Touch 2G. _I am sure that my problem is not caused by waterdamage._ I will try to teel you while. I give a short summary of things happened till my audioproblem.
{{{First my iPod worked fine, except of some waterspots and a strip on my screen.. I was totally happy. But after two days it wouldn't load. Then I was on holiday so I couldn't have contact with apple support. On 24 august I emailed, just for try, and received answer that Apple could nothing do for me, and I accepted it because it was my own fault. My touch díd still work, but when I set it asleep, it wouldn't wake up, till its batterie was fully empty so I could load it.
But as a miracle, the iPod started recovering till fully healthy, the only thing that is still wrong, was the screen that still had some dirty spots.}}}
By the way, my liquidindicator is only for 2/5 red, does this say something?
About the 3rd week of october, my headset gave the described problem. I thought my headset was broken and the shop where I bought my headphones replaced them, which took some time too. The day before yesterday I mailed an Applestore and told about the audioproblem and the waterdamage which I considered to have nothing to do with. I still received the answer it could be corrosion.
I think this is totally ridiculous. At first, it was only a bit water.
(I am not sure if the indicator at 2/5 approves this, or my indicator is just a bit deviant)
My iPod worked fine over one month long, till the audioproblem.
If corrosion was damaging my iPod, why did my iPod recover, but my audioport started to give suddenly problems after 2,5 month?
Very striking: When I had to mention the kind of problem I had to specify my problem from >Repair< / Replace >>> swithches and buttons / Power / >Sound< / Screen >>> and then choose from 8 options, including _I hear only sound at one side (left or right) while playing._
They seem to be familiar with this problem. What could actually cause this problem?
And if it was corrosion, wont the other side be defective too or got defective in one month?
And the most important question: Ain't that time too long to really damage stuff and even still so suddenly?
Thank you all

Answer 1

I mean; one defective audio channel is a quite specific problem; (I think it's a too specific problem to be caused by waterdamage), but though the service-requestpage of Apple has placed it in the list of common sound problems. People that have water damage usually have more than one problem on their iPod, so why would people with water damage go to that very specific problem (not even to 'no sound at all-problem' but to 'one defective channel-problem)
I think I mean its just thát one thing that is wrong. And (all) people with waterproblems won't ever go to that specific problem if they request service.
So ór I am a miraculous exception, ór it's caused by something else then waterdamage.
I dont really know how to express it, or maybe it just isnt an argument, but I feel something like there's an argument in it. Can anyone maybe word it better or say I'm talking nonsense?
(But please stay on my main-article)
