Water damage or faulty digitizer?

I’ve been all through the forums, so forgive me if this has been answered.  [br]

Our iPad mini 2 (I know, it’s super old) fell into water.  I immediately shut it off, opened it up, and pulled everything out.  There wasn’t much water inside, but the digitizer connector did have a droplet of water in it. [br]

Meanwhile, I cracked the LCD.  Left the iPad open to dry and ordered a new LCD.  It works perfectly.  But the touch screen no longer works.  There is no visible sign of water damage.[br]

Is the digitizer likely damaged by water?  Is there any point in ordering a new digitizer?  I didn’t damage the digitizer when I opened it, I don’t think.  [br]

This is my son’s iPad and he uses it for school, so I’m pretty eager for it to work.  We can’t afford a new one, so thanks for any advice.
