HELP! iPhone was drowned, Home button stopped working.

Last morning, I dropped my Iphone 5s into the water for 1 second.

I turned off it and started to disassemble it.

The water even couldn't get into the motherboard side.

Everything seemed fine except the Home button.

check the home button connector and the charger port flex slot it plugs into for corrosion, and cleaning that with isopropyl alcohol, if that doesent work next step would be new charger port , final step is new home button, but a new home button will lose touchid function no matter what
