LCD displays use incredibly small currents and any contaminants can 'steal' enough of the signal to cause a faded appearance of the characters. Depending on how clean the water was, you may be able to dry out the remaining moisture by placing it in an area of very mild (no more than 100 degrees F) heat for several days. Open any compartments on the unit and remove the battery pack so warm air has the best chance of penetrating.
