Versa 3 won't charge or hold a charge

[Wwalks]

My versa three got wet a couple weeks ago and was unresponsive. I put it in rice to try and dry it out and it's taken three weeks but it's finally died and turning on when on charge, but now it won't hold any charge and as soon as I disconnect the charger it dies. I've tried charging it for over 8hrs and it still remains on zero. I thought the versa was supposed to be waterproof to 50m?

Hi @Wwalks - that is the best troubleshooting you can do, unfortunately there is probably too much internal damage for it to work.Other people post the same issue with water getting in, if you look in the forums
