To fix water in a charging port, first, turn off your device to prevent damage. Gently tap your device with the port facing down to remove excess water. Avoid using heat sources like hairdryers as they can damage the device. Instead, let it air dry or use a small fan for several hours. If moisture remains, placing the device in a bag of uncooked rice or silica gel packets can help absorb the water. Finally, check for any remaining moisture before turning your device back on.
