The Dock Water Sensor Absorbent for Apple iPhone 4S (5 pcs) is the liquid contact indicator (LCI) located inside the dock connector. It turns from white to red on contact with moisture, letting the technician quickly check whether the device has suffered liquid ingress.
It is used in the lab when the original indicator has come off or been damaged during dock connector replacement or cleaning, or as a test reference to check for moisture.
