Maybe the flathead who burnt the toast did more damage than he's admitting ??, ie did he put the burnt toast in the drive ??

'Opps' indeed. Better get it back together and warranty it, praying they don't notice you took it apart...

Next time a game gets suck in your drive, unplug the unit,let it set for a while, replug it and it should work fine.
As far as the burnt toast, make sure to get all of the butter, jelly, or jam cleaned up from the circuit board and try to vacuum out the crumbs before you send it back for the warranty work.

13.5 volts is okay, I take it you have a multimeter and know how to use one, try googling Wii electrical schematic and see if you can find a chart and check the test points to see if you can isolate the problem area, in my experience, switches don't short out that often from a screw driver touching a board, me thinks you burned out something else on the path that you shorted. Check all of the fuses and hope that you got lucky on this one.
