NAV **** got spilled on! Help!

So I was doing a little thing that I call the 100 club, which involves some heavy braking. Well my foolish passenger had a bottle of juice in the center cupholder without the top on and it flew up out of the cup holder, and right into my NAV controls, shiftboot, and ashtray. I got it all cleaned up, but now the directional **** on my nav isnt working. I'm gonna try and pull it out today and see what I can do with it, anyone else had any luck?

I would go to any electronics store and get some electronic contact cleaner. There are many different names but tell the guy your situation and that you need to clean up an electrical switch. Hope this helps.

well, I took the unit out yesterday, dissasembled it and dryed it out the best I could. I reinstalled it and had up/down functionality, but no left/right. so i took it out again and cleaned it once more. now it doesn't work at all.
