Car accessory fell into water?

I always plug in my iPhone into a cable accessory for the car to play music but when I found the cable it was wet from being dropped into a glass of water. I don't know how long it was in the water but all I do know is now it doesn't work. Do I leave it in rice? Would that help? Maybe it'd have the same effect of the rice saving wet cell phones? I really don't want to buy another one because 1: it's my older brothers accessory and 2: it's 30 for another one.

Yes, leave it in a sealed bag of rice for around a day and see if it works then.

Go buy another one dummy, that's what you get for having something electronic near water. What a fool.

  • What to do if your iPhone fell in water? I tried the blow dryer approach and now I submerged my phone in a container filled with rice. Is there anything else I can try at this point?
  • What do i do, my iphone fell in water I was brushing my teeth while listening to music from my iphone and it fell in the sink and was completely submerged in water for about a few seconds but i got it out quickly. I turned it off right away and put it in a bowl of wild rice (obvously not cooked) because thats what it said online. Did i do the right thing? Does anyone have any better methods? If the rice is the right idea, how long do i leave my phone in it?
  • My iPhone fell into water I took a blow dryer to it, then I soaked it in a bag of rice.It'll turn on when it's plugged into a wall charger, but it says it needs to be connected to iTunes and be restored, so I plugged it into my laptop and it won't turn on.iTunes won't even pick up my phone to sync or ANYTHING. I need help! I left it in the bag of rice OVER 24 hours.
  • My iPhone fell in the water? The touch screen doesn't work and the camera app wasn't working also the flash stays on even when I have it off I bought it in January do I still have AppleCare? Also is it worth to fix it or should I just buy a new one because I have another upgrade on Verizon $140 they said
