Most amps and stereo systems have protection against liquid ingress, take the top off and leave it to air out in a room at a reasonable temperature. If it has been in storage it could be condensation on the main board., if so airing it out could fix it.

That's a pity. Just check that there is no crud connecting chip pins on the board. If you could also add a picture or 2 of the board I will have a look at it to see if there is anything I can see.
