Mechanical Keyboard failure?

Go to solution Solved by Piemanfood,

Ok never mind idk what happened but I just plugged it back in to see if it would work and its working just fine now. 

Hey guys so last night I was eating some ramen when I had a random small cough come out of no where that I couldn't stop. I ended up spitting a good amount of broth onto my keyboard and immediately I went into action on drying it out and cleaning everything up. I turned it upside down and shook it to get all of the liquid out and in the process was pressing quite a few of the keys. When I had finished and dried my desk I noticed that my desktop was freaking out and glitching. V just kept being typed and retyped as if it was being deleted by someone hitting the keyboard but I wasn't. I closed the browser and opened the start menu where other keys such as /,.] where being typed for no reason. I unplugged the usbs and plugged them out making the phantom typing stop but now nothing will work. I can't get any key to register nor can I get the back lights to turn on. I don't know if the keyboard is broken from liquid damage or if I locked it up some how. Its a Razor BlackWidow Ultimate 2014. I've had it for over a year now and I would hate to lose it to something as stupid as ramen broth. If anyone knows what to do please help me.
