Default Sluggish Steering servo

So I've been searching for hours now... and haven't find my problem.

I'm running a stock AE2, 5000mah 3s 35c hyperion, castel bec, HH 35t brushed and a hitec HS-7955TG steering servo.
I haven't been out in awhile as it's still winter, last time out I had no problems. I put my battery into storage mode if it's not in use for 2 days.

So I fully charged my battery and went out for 5 min's in a bit of slush and my steering is non responsive, sluggish and random at best.

I've plasti-dipped all my electronics and submerged it in the past with no problems.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated
Thanks Chris

plstidip Water proofing is far from perfect. Its what I use but you have to understand. What worked yesterday may fail today... The wet slush may have killed off your servo.

So I tried running my wraith again... the steering seems to working a bit better but is still gets stuck at full left steer.
My new question is; is it possible to salvage this servo? Either by drying it if it's still wet? Replacing the circuit bord? or Using the titanium geers in a cheeper servo of the same type?
Thanks Chris
