Took my mdx40 down this week and about 10 minutes in the moisture alarm went off. When I got to the surface there was about 100ml of brown water in the housing. Not sure where the leak occurred or what caused the discolouration of the water (seawater reacting with moisture alarm battery?). My question is what do I do next? I realise I'm going to need to clean the housing inside and out, but I'm not sure of the process... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
HI-
Our apologies for the delayed reply. Sorry to hear of your flood. If you haven't sought service or support from your distributor or dealer, that is our best recommendaton. A flood requires that the housing be serviced and cleaned thoroughly along with a proper pressure-test on re-assembly.
