Ks2 light on / camera not working

Hello, I got absolutely soaked today in Iceland, as i got caught in bad weather during a trail - i was carrying my 5 months old baby and couldn’t care less for my DSLR which my wife carried - we had heavy wind and rain - like soaked to underwear level. I had a non WR lens on it.

When we arrived (safely) I noticed the red l light at the back (next to the screen) was on, even though the camera was “off”. Now the camera doesn’t turn on. I’ve dried the camera now and changed lens, it’s been a few hours and the camera shows the same problem. I’m now charging the battery hoping it will go away by tomorrow.

I’ve been googling this for one hour and can’t find anyone having this problem - I am actually not quite sure what to google.

Any ideas?
In the manual there is no reference to having that mini red light on when the camera is off.

Thanks

I've never heard of that particular problem but if the rain was as heavy as you say and the lens was not WR then I'd say your camera is highly likely to have shot it's last. It sounds like conditions I wouldn't even trust a WR camera and lens combo to be safe in.

Thanks, it turns out I’ve found someone with a similar problem, I was given advice to put my camera in a sealed back full of rice, after 2 days it works again
