    I spilled soda on my Cr-48 and now it randomly crashes

    I spilled soda on my Cr-48's keyboard and now it randomly crashes (Chrome OS is missing or damaged). I have tried wiping my Cr-48 and starting from scratch and that doesn't work. This happens very often on all release channels and with or without the developer mode switch on. Is there some way I can check if the solid state drive is damaged?
    Any ideas on how to fix it? Any tests I can run?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    UPDATE: Forgot to mention my Cr-48 sometimes reboots randomly and sometimes freezes and stays frozen...

    I spilled soda on a laptop keyboard once. The only way to fix it was to buy a new one (laptop).

    I know that doesn't help, but I do hope you have better luck. Chances are the liquid has cause some hardware damage. Wiping and reinstalling the software won't help. The damaged hardware will need to be repaired, or more likely replaced.
