Default Soaked monitor works after drying!

Ok, I was ****ed. A roof leak dripped right into the slots on my
Prinston EO500 while it was on, in standby. When I discovered it, the
screen was compressed and severely distorted. It was clearly in dire
distress. I turned it off, unplugged it and drained the water out by
inverting. I let it dry for a week and hooked it back up. No go,
distorted internal diagnostic error screen showing wildly fluctuating H
and V freq.
Let it sit for 3 more weeks and tried again. It works perfectly!!!
Life is good....
