Water in seat heater control.

I clumsily spilled some water in my car and a little of it went into the seat heater controls. Should I be worried? I tried to all the water around it, but some of it did go down. I mean, it is my fault but also Acura should have placed it in a better position. It's an 2014 RDX Tech Package, and the seat heater controls are literally next to the cup holders.

I wouldn't be too worried. I bet the switch contacts are contained in a somewhat-sealed plastic enclosure.

Do they still work normally? If so I wouldn't worry about it. Especially with water. Soda is another story. I had an Audi Q7 with terrible switch placement. If liquids were spilled into it you were looking at 1K plus for a new board.
