Last night I removed a few rocks from my fuge and spilled a few drops of water on my DC8, I cleaned it right up and didn't think any got inside. Now today my lights won't come on, any suggestions?
 
If water did get inside you might try covering it with rice to absorb any water they may have gotten in. Thats what they recommenend when phones get wet.
 
One of mine got wet and has the same issues, since it is already broken you might as well open it up and see if some salt has creeped across the relay contacts and won't let it receive the controller voltage to switch.

It isn't just the water that damages it with saltwater, it's also what is left behind.
