    Flooded Warp!

    Playing in the rain at the weekend, I left my warp somewhere I thought was dry. Turned out between games a puddle formed and the warp got very wet. when I picked the warp up the paint had swollen and one of the balls had burst.
    I stripped it down and cleaned it out and it looked fine.
    Problem is now when I connect the battery it just keeps spinning.
    There is no sensor inside the warp, it's set up for intellifeed only.
    I have dried it out and it worked fine for about 30 seconds, then just kept running again.
    Anyone have an idea what the problem might be.
    Cheers

        That probably means the prime button is still wet. Dry with a hair dryer and LET IT SIT in a warm (hot if possible) DRY environment. That should fix it.

          Thanks I'll give that a try. I was just going to buy a new switch.
          Think the moral here is don't leave your warp in a potential lake situation.
          Not gonna let that happen again, second warp is on it's way for my back-up RT.
