    Creator (wood): Is my motherboard toast?

    I've had my Flashforge Creator for a while and have used it with great success, however today I was cleaning it and I know I broke something, I just don't know what.

    I was cleaning under my heated build plate, and here's the part I now know was stupid, I was using my metal bed leveling shim to knock a piece of scrap out of the way and I touched the contacts for the heated bed and saw a spark.

    Now my display is blank and the machine doesn't respond. All power seems to be showing (display backlight, board has lights, etc), but no response from buttons.

    Is there a checklist somewhere or do I just go right to ordering another Mightyboard? And is direct from Flashforge the most reliable route?

    The board label says:
    2012 ff3dp.com
    Designed by FlashForge
    based on Makerbot mightyboard
