what do you mean by it wont work? does the car even turn on? does the front wheels align themselves when you turn the car on?

Well. I wouldn't say most definitely... But I do highly suspect that, or his battery contacts or wiring might be bad.

I HATE WATER!!!!!!! my 350Z went spastic and went in the pool, everything works except steering so i doubt that its the EP. if i can submerge a chassis in chlorinated water and not fry the EP than you can drive a hummer in some drops

I find it kind of hard to believe that a few drops of water could screw up a board.

the first bumblebee i had i took through some water, but it was mostly just like damp concrete and somehow it fried that large orange thing on the pass side of the board, it turned black and melted, the fets and everything were fine but that thing was gone, then i exchanged it for a new one but u might wanna check that
