They power washed the deck and got my connector wet the web cam is ok but the cord is wet so I'm trying to dry it out to see if I can get it working again.

Since I haven't seen the cam on again, I have to assume the cable never dried out properly. I'm so sorry that happened.

It's always sad when good equipment goes bad. May we have a moment of silence for our departed cable....

Home now and yes the extension cable was fried. Gues that will teach me I will have to wrap the connection in plastic wrap to keep the water out. Funny I've had that out in some pretty good storms but I guess when they power washed the sech they probably blew water right into the connector. :icon_headshake:

Darn shame about your equipment, sorry to hear that. If you ever run into that situation again I would suggest using a high grade electrical tape like Scotch 33+. It is super strechy and will conform to almost any shape to really seal things. I once had a radiator hose on my car split and it took about a whole roll but it closed it up and I was able to refill and get back home. And it usually doesn't leave behind any sticky residue when you remove it. But if that is a concern put the first layer on upsidedown and then add a few more wraps after that. The tighter you pull each wrap the better it seals. Thanx large for the views we did get.
