get the mud off with clean water and then lots of alcohol
the issue wit any electronics is getting power off/batteries out
and then dry out,, the alcohol will help get rid of the water
you didnt say if there was mud or just wet,, if it isnt too dirty then
alcohol
and invest in a can of deoxit to spray the switches
make sure it is dry before B + ing it
