How?!

I have just taken your GPS apart and you've even managed to get mud between the LCD and the touch panel, which is sealed!?

I have a partial story from bunnie but given there was more mud inside it then, well, most of Salisbury plain, I think you should share how you did it :)

Well to be honest with you it looks like you let it dry out before you tried using it, Display has been stripped and cleaned and looks like it'll probobly behave now, rest is just very dry, sandy mud and I dont see any corrosion. Need to get some IPA or PCB cleaning solvent but it doesnt look that bad at all. I suspect the battery pack is well and truly dead though.
