Spray it with WD-40 and air dry it with compressed gas. That should do it.

change oil ka muna bago paandarin, baka may tubig na nakapasok sa makina mo

contact cleaner or silicone spray for me. it dries faster than wd40.

thanks for all the posts..
just yesterday, i re-installed the computer box. and the car started ok. here's what i did: i took it off the car. opened the box. cleaned up the stucked mud off the components with contact cleaner. checked the components (diodes, capacitors etc) if working ok. medyo corroded na yung transistor kya i had to take it off the board and had it soldered well. nung kinabit ko sa oto , nag-start naman at smooth naman yung idle.
ang nasira was yung blower ng a/c, masyado yata ako na-excite nung umandar kaya binuhay ko rin, ayun, ayaw na gumana pero i hope fuse lang.
next steps: change engine & gear oil, clean up brake pads, have the car diagnosed sa casa & tune up na rin then clean up evaporator & blower ng a/c. kung may suggestion pa po kayo, pakisuyo na lang na i-post para magawa ko rin. salamat dami...

do not use WD40 for electrial components, this is only use to prevent rush and lubrication. baka makaroon ng short circuit.
Use Contact cleaner, this is really for electrical componenets, it cleans and dries up immediately to prevent short circuit. may nabibili nito sa Ace in small aerosol can.
Kung pinasok ng tubig yong engine mo, do not try to start it. pachek mo sa mehanics para ma drain yong tubig + oil sa loob ng engine, baka hindi na kailangan ng overhaul.

good luck, sana wala masyadong problema sa ride mo.
