Spilt Water on Xbox One S

I knocked a glass of water accidentally off of my desk above my Xbox. It wasn't very much but it basically poured right into the fan. I left it to dry for about 8 hours and now it will turn on for a max of 30 second then power off. What should I do? Is there any fix for this?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Try leaving it to dry even longer. I would recommend taking it apart and setting the motherboard at an angle in a dry place. There may still be water on the motherboard under chips.

Otherwise, the power supply might be dead now. If you take it apart and it looks like there’s heavy water damage on the motherboard, then that’s probably not an issue.

If you don't feel comfortable taking it apart, I would still try leaving it on its side for several days. The only way to truly make sure all the water leaves is by taking it apart unfortunately.
