Default Spilled water between console and seat. Radio died, nav and screen went dark -FUSE?

I spilled half a bottle of water between my seat and console. First the radio died. Two hours later the entire screen was dark. Can not turn on Climate controls, can not use nav system. ETc. Is it a fuse? Or do I need new wiring?

Wouldn't say new wiring most likely a fuse or fuses or the worst case scenario your amp fried under the seat.....

Pull the fuses to all the accessories and whatever is affected, try to dry it somehow, depending on the climate where you are for a while. Give it some time, do some research, hopefully a fuse. Also if by chance the nav system did get damaged, there is a really nice Tesla style touchscreen available for about 700 bucks, after I relocate I am pulling mine and replacing it.

Default Spilled water-radio did not work for a few weeks

I spilled water on my console of my 2010 RX 450-H. The radio stopped working immediately. After 3-4 weeks it works again, without me changing any fuses. Bluetooth connects and I can hear caller but they cannot hear me. Anyone know what fuse this is?
