Chances are its toast, but it is worth a try...sometimes it works ***************************************
If you ever find that you have to deal with a wet device, don\'t just abandon it. Instead, try the following method to repair the water damage:
DO NOT TURN IT ON! Take it apart as much as you can. Take out the battery, the memory card and whatever else can be easily disassembled. (Just make sure you can put it back together.) Store the parts in an air-tight container covered with either dry rice, silica gel packets or kitty litter. These will absorb the moisture from your electronics device, leaving it water-free. If no rice, gel packets or kitty litter are available, try using a vacuum to suck the water out. DO NOT blow-dry the parts, it will only force the water farther in and cause more damage. Please take time to rate me. Bud

There's no way to easily check what's causing your power problem. You may have a short in your 'hot wire' or the red wire coming out of your radio (I'm assuming the ground wire hasn't come loose and shorted out the radio, but that is something to consider also....as long as you don't smell something burning you should be ok). The problem with newer vehicles is that the radios have been made 'theft proof' by forcing you to remove pretty much the entire dash to get at them. Unless you or someone you know is mechanically inclined, I'd suggest taking it to a garage...sorry.... :(
There are 7 screws. You missed the one hidden under the small silver label. Once you take it apart, don't waste your time calling Aurora as you voided your warranty and ability to get help from them. That happened to me.
