you can try to solder the servo wires back where they belong but it almost certain that the servo circuit is damaged and it will only work few minutes.(that is what happened at least with my hitec servo)

from curiosity who this happened all in sudden from water binding ....?

I sent mine in about a month ago, havent had a phone call or anything. I keep meaning to call them but keep forgetting. maybe I will make time for it tomorrow. also, it helps if you have your reciept. otherwise, flat rate is around 18.00 for a repair. good thing is, if they can't fix it, they will send you a new one.

Burnt out amplifier. A common problem. Send it to HiTec and if it's under warranty, they'll take care of you.
