Hi Pilot,

I have just submerged my mavic into water. Now it can not connect to RC, even after I tried to link them.
Is it serious..? Which part need to be replaced..?

Thank,
 
Ugh...you should have never powered it up while it was wet

Please do not tell me you powered it on while wet. If you did you probably fried the receiver or the main logic board. @Thunderdrones can quote you on that.
 
In the meantime, bath it in rice and let it dry. If you were lucky you only shorted signal pads which fix themselves once dry.

I have dried it in the rice for 3 days. I tested and not connected after this drying process. It's only the remote that can not connect. The gimbal still responding when I move aircraft by hand, as well as all light indicator works well.

Have you checked if the WiFi switch is set to RC or Wifi?
