Hello! I have been given some water damaged AirPods to fix. Apparently the actual AirPods work, but the case doesn’t after being in contact with water. I do not know how long it was in water, or any details like that. How would I go about fixing this?

Frankly, you don’t. It is almost impossible to take apart the case intact and have it still be working, hence the 0/10 repairability on the repairability scale. I would just advise your customer that it might be worth their while to buy a new charging case. This is a rare case that I advise doing something like this but it may be your only option. Point your customer to this website and have them contact Apple for a genuine replacement charging case. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207827
