Cameras like this don't normally have fuses. Water causes electricity to flow in paths it's not meant to, causing corrosion and possibly burning out chips on the way. You may be able to clean corrosion with switch cleaning fluid or isopropyl alcohol, but keep it away from the lens and LCD. Examine the circuit board vary carefully with a magnifying glass.
