mikemgb Posted June 11, 2017 Share #41 Posted June 11, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Those circuits were probably waterproofed, for instance by a water repellent coating. I built most of them myself, no waterproofing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leica Guy Posted June 12, 2017 Share #42 Posted June 12, 2017 I used to build and sail radio control model boats. The electronics in those would get wet every trip out. We would pull the circuit boards, run them under fresh water to wash all salts out then put them in a warm place to dry. A few days later we'd put them back in and everything would be fine. Fresh water doesn't damage electronics, it's the salts dissolved in water that does. As other say, wait a while and try it again. That makes sense to me. The key is washing off carefully and drying thoroughly before any power is supplied. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
