Can't turn on my Xperia Arc S

Can't turn on my Xperia Arc S

Last week i travelled home by car. My arc s was in my bag. the weather was warm it was about 30 degrees. when i arrived home i noticed that my phone turned off. i tried to turn on but nothing happened. i take off the back than removed the battery. There were little water drops under the battery. i didn't have any drink or water in my bag so i don't understand what happened. when i connect my phone to my pc with usb i get a message that my pc couldn't recognise my device. Is it possible that something switched off in my phone and i could switch it back manualy somewhere under the back of the phone? or could i reset it or something? If i bring it back to the mobile shop will they repair it or give me another 1? i used my phone as i read in the guide so it's not my fault that my phone gave up.

Do it as follow >> PCC > SUPPORT ZONE> SOFTWARE UPDATE> REPAIR SOFTWARE (written with blue)

During this step, due to the phone keeps restarting, the Phone just cannot connect to the PCC, thus PCC cannot perform software updates, what should i do? my phone is Xperia Arc S..............
